Humor and Satire in the English Classroom.
Donelson, Kenneth, Ed.
Arizona English Bulletin, v16 n1 p1-135 October 1973
According to the "Arizona English Bulletin" (AEB), not enough attention is given to humor or satire in high school English classes. AEB suggests that if the English class is a place for bringing reality into the curriculum, humor must become a part of the total English program. Featured in this issue are 25 essays on various aspects of humor and satire, including humor in literature, background to humor, short films using parody and satire, teaching Shakespearean comedy, writing humor, graffiti, comic books and strips, some problems in teaching satire, and comedy in radio. Sample parodies written by English teachers and a bibliography of books on humor and satire are also included. (LL)
