Juvenalian refers to a style of satire that is harsh, biting, and often critical of societal issues. Named after the Roman poet Juvenal, this form of satire aims to provoke thought and inspire change by exposing the flaws and corruption within society. It often employs irony, exaggeration, and ridicule to highlight moral shortcomings. Unlike Horatian satire, which is more light-hearted and humorous, Juvenalian satire takes a darker tone. It addresses serious subjects such as political corruption, social injustice, and human vice, making it a powerful tool for social commentary. This approach can be found in various forms of literature, theater, and modern media.
