520 |a This article compares theories of comedy to the development of modern ethnography. The discussion begins with a review of 18th-century English satire, followed by commentary on the place of comedy in Western intellectual traditions.

These shared modes suggest similar critical intent. Recognizing a relationship between theories of comedy and modern ethnography adds to our appreciation of the plurality of the ethnographic endeavor.
