The volume includes an array of humorous imitations of notable authors such as A. C. Swinburne, Robert Browning, and Oscar Wilde, among others. This compilation not only showcases the wit of the parodists but also provides bibliographic information for those interested in parody as a literary genre. The opening of the work presents a thoughtful preface by the author, expressing gratitude to contributors and detailing the extensive effort involved in compiling parodies of literary merit. It highlights the diverse styles represented within the collection, including prose and verse parodies across various themes, from political to romantic. The compilation is a celebration of satire in literature, offering readers both entertainment and insight into the creative interplay between original works and their playful reinterpretations.
