QUE SIGNIFIE SATIRE EN ANGLAIS

Satire

Satire

La satire est un genre de littérature, et parfois des arts graphiques et artistiques, dans lesquels les vices, les folies, les abus et les faiblesses sont censés être ridiculisés, idéalement dans l'intention d'enlever les individus, les entreprises, le gouvernement ou la société elle-même. Bien que la satire soit habituellement conçue pour être humoristique, son but majeur est souvent la critique sociale constructive, l'utilisation de l'esprit comme arme et comme un outil pour attirer l'attention sur des problèmes particuliers et plus vastes dans la société. Une caractéristique de la satire est une ironie ou un sarcasme fort: «dans la satire, l'ironie est militante», mais la parodie, le burlesque, l'exagération, la juxtaposition, la comparaison, l'analogie et le double sens sont souvent utilisés dans le discours et l'écriture satiriques. Cette ironie ou sarcasme «militant» prétend souvent approuver les choses que le satiriste veut attaquer. La Satire se trouve aujourd'hui dans de nombreuses formes d'expression artistique, y compris la littérature, les pièces de théâtre, les commentaires, les émissions de télévision et les médias tels que les paroles.

Satire is a genre of literature, and sometimes graphic and performing arts, in which vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government or society itself, into improvement. Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon and as a tool to draw attention to both particular and wider issues in society. A feature of satire is strong irony or sarcasm—"in satire, irony is militant"—but parody, burlesque, exaggeration, juxtaposition, comparison, analogy, and double entendre are all frequently used in satirical speech and writing. This "militant" irony or sarcasm often professes to approve of the very things the satirist wishes to attack. Satire is nowadays found in many artistic forms of expression, including literature, plays, commentary, television shows, and media such as lyrics.
