Has Abstract	The earliest stage in the development of Jewish satire is exemplified by the Purim play, based typically on subjects related to the biblical Book of Esther. In the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, these plays were presented in a festive atmosphere of thanksgiving for the miracle of Jewish survival. In this spirit, Jews permitted themselves to poke fun at their humiliated persecutors. A limited time frame of one or two days annually at the holiday of Purim moderated the meanest of the satires, as did rabbinical supervision. Over time, however, the objects of satire shifted from gentile oppressors to Jewish communal leadership.	yivo
