摘要

本文探讨了定义讽刺的一些困难。无论是讽刺的正式特征,还是它的信息目的,包括它与幽默和娱乐的不同联系,都不允许一个长期的统一定义。它考虑了一系列的方法和类型的定义,并作为一个原则的例子,menipean讽刺的概念。它认为,与正式定义相比,从家族相似性的角度来描述讽刺作品的特征更有助于严格的历史理解,而且将讽刺作品视为一种体裁,更不用说文学体裁了,这是一种误导。自始至终,它也表明,讽刺的案例告诉我们一些关于定义的东西,以及对定义所能建立的东西的天真期望。

Satire and definition
This paper explores some of the difficulties involved in defining satire. Neither the formal characteristics of satire nor its informing purposes, including its variable associations with humour and the provocation of amusement allow for a unifying definition over the long term. It considers a range of approaches to and types of definition and takes as a principle example the notion of Menippean satire. It argues that a characterisation in terms of family resemblance is more helpful for a strictly historical understanding than formal definitions and that it is misleading to take satire as a genre, let along a literary one. Throughout it also suggests that the case of satire tells us something about definition and the often naive expectations of what definitions can establish.
