Meredith M. Hale presents the first chapter in the history of modern political satire, one that is critical to the media's emergence as the 'fourth estate'. Discussing themes relevant today, the study locates Dutch printmaker Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708) at the birth of modern political satire, and political satire at the heart of the modern media.
