Description:

Eine politisch-satirische Streitschrift gegen die Tory-Party in Bristol, speziell gegen deren Kandidaten Edmund Burke. - Mock-heroic, mock-epic or heroi-comic works are typically satires or parodies that mock common Classical stereotypes of heroes and heroic literature. Typically, mock-heroic works either put a fool in the role of the hero or exaggerate the heroic qualities to such a point that they become absurd.
