Augustan Satire

Augustan Satire is a form of literary satire that belongs to the broader genre of neoclassical literature and is distinguished by its adherence to rational critique, formal elegance, and the use of irony, wit, and allusion to expose societal and political follies during the early 18th century in Britain, particularly under the influence of the cultural ideals associated with the Augustan age.
