Keeness and severity of remark; caustic exposure to reprobation; trenchant wit; sarcasm
Expressive device delivered in print, on stage, or by electronic media in which
vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule. Ideally the
intent is to shame individuals, and society itself, into improvement. Although
satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive
social criticism, using wit as a weapon. For sites exploring the ways in which
satire is expressed.
