Hey Class,

Hope all of you are doing well, and I'm looking forward to being back in the classroom on Tuesday. Here's the brief lecture for today's class, and I've attached the Satire quiz questions below.

Thanks,

Mr. Raza

Restoration Literature Quiz – Satire

1. Is A Modest Proposal a successful satire? Defend your answer by using quotes from the text.

An A answer will have a clear thesis and use multiple quotes from the text to demonstrate their point. Remember to interpret/analyze the quotes you choose…don’t leave the quote hanging.
As always, use complete sentences and proper grammar. This is a formal written response.

2. Is satire still an effective form of social commentary? Use example from contemporary society to prove your point.

An A answer will have a clear thesis and use multiple examples to demonstrate its point. Think about what uses satire today…music, tv, comics, etc.
As always, use complete sentences and proper grammar. This is a formal written response.
