Question

For those in power, which type of writing would most likely be the most threatening?

a. parody
b. burlesque
c. Horatian satire
d. Juvenalian satire

Answer 1

I’d say it’s either c. or d.

Horatian satire is usually more persuading with gentle ridicules while juvenalian satire is pointing out more flaws of human nature on a more personal approach.

Answer 2

Answer: d-Juvenalian satire

Explanation: A writer who is extremely angry with the people in power will use this type of writing to attack the wicked side of the individuals in power. The writer's purpose is to subvert the established order and to expose hypocrisy and corruption.
