Defining Satire Journal

by

Sometime during Week 2, I’m asking every student to turn in their first journal, a 1-2 paragraph definition of what we mean by the term satire. There is no wrong answer at this point (though later I’d like us to be able to differentiate between parody and irony, caricature and satire. . .), but taking time now to establish some common ground will be valuable.

Before starting the assignment, read the Satire Journal Assignments for help. Once you’ve written your journal, post is below as a comment to this thread.

I looking forward to reading your work.
