Abstract

This thesis shows satire as the literary genre one American author, Philip Roth, seems to have chosen as his way of writing about the often illogical and amoral contemporary world. It examines the characteristics of satire and analyzes Roth's more recent novels in terms of psychological, political and mock epic satire.
