Parody

"Parody
… is imitation, not always at the expense of the parodied text."
"Parody always features an author who actively encodes a text as an imitation with critical difference."(L.Hutcheon)

Class assignment (group work, done orally):

1. Look at the picture "Moaning Lisa" below and use it as an example to figure out the features of parody in terms of semiotics.


2. Compare the posters and describe the means of visual parody in this genre.

3. What are specific features of this very kind of parody?
