Definitions

  1. Of, related to, or having characteristics of parody.

Used in a sentence

  • All gender is parodic in the sense that it is all imitative, but some forms are more parodic than others because that imitativeness is exposed.
  • From this common background, the G author/redactor seems to have chosen to highlight the more parodic elements in the tradition, while muting the more serious or somber representation of Aesop's heroic end.
  • So even the pastiche one might expect to be the most parodic, the fiercest with the "target" author, turns into—at worse^([sic])—an amusing exercise in self-congratulation, of Proust, by Proust.
