  • More about Changing Satire: Transformations and Continuities in Europe, 1600-1830

Changing satire explores how satire evolved from a genre-driven to a visual medium in the seventeenth through nineteenth centuries, featuring a wide range of material from canonical authors to lesser-known sources and prints. It was a European phenomenon, referencing well-known authors and artists across countries and languages, and serving as a transgressor of borders.

Format: Hardback
Length: 448 pages
Publication date: 26 April 2022
Publisher: Manchester University Press


This edited collection brings together literary scholars and art historians, and maps how satire became a less genre-driven and increasingly visual medium in the seventeenth through the early nineteenth century. Changing satire explores how satire proliferated in various formats and discusses a wide range of material from canonical authors like Swift to little-known manuscript sources and prints. As the book emphasises, satire was a frame of reference for well-known authors and artists ranging from Milton to Bernini and Goya. It was moreover a broad European phenomenon: while the book focuses on English satire, it also considers France, Italy, The Netherlands, and Spain, and discusses how satirical texts and artwork could move between countries and languages. In its wide sweep across time and formats, Changing satire brings out the importance that satire had as a transgressor of borders.
