Parody by Margaret A. Rose
A concise, theoretically informed study that traces the forms and functions of parody from classical origins to contemporary practice, examining how imitation and divergence, humor and critique intersect across literature, drama, and the visual arts; it offers typologies (burlesque, travesty, pastiche), explores intertextuality and the role of audience recognition, and uses close readings and historical examples to show how parodic strategies can both subvert and reinforce cultural and political norms.
