A parody (also known as spoof) is an instance where one intentionally copies or imitates a subject, event, or scenario. In literature, it is used for comedic effect or for ridicule. In other applications, it can be used for simulations that imitate particular scenarios, people or subjects. Parodies can be found in music, film, literature, and animation. Derived from ancient Greek terms, the word was adapted from “parodia” for the equivalent to the Latin phrase ad imitationem. In French Neoclassical literature, a parody was a new defamiliarization from where it’s target text is imitated mostly from another form of literature. Parodies use techniques that exaggerates features and patterns of its subject to expose it as superficial and cliché-ridden. In literature, parodies aim to criticize the text, literary techniques, characters or fictious worlds. Its main importance is how it illuminates perpetuated misconceptions from the public audience. Literature parodies allow for the broadening of understanding of intertextuality through the use of comic effects. http://www.oxfordscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780195342369.001.0001/acprof-9780195342369-chapter-5 https://books.google.com/books?id=oa42E3DP3icC&pg=PA300&lpg=PA300&dq=importance+of+parodies&source=bl&ots=V_H3Z7YDsk&sig=cWiN4YtWMlkREf_gAhoEo6mZAkY&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjzk_myof7KAhXJ1hQKHYd-AjE4ChDoAQhBMAk#v=onepage&q=importance%20of%20parodies&f=false http://www.connotations.de/pdf/articles/fishelov01223.pdf https://depotuw.ceon.pl/bitstream/handle/item/1226/ABCD.The_Creative_Role_of_Parody._PU%20(2).pdf?sequence=3 https://books.google.com/books?id=VyZVYxSPR00C&pg=PA127&lpg=PA127&dq=importance+of+parodies&source=bl&ots=CIZiyoSWyp&sig=y88NviDy1MorueFJH8EkXxegFug&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiM0L70oP7KAhXDtBQKHWCOCx4Q6AEIJDAB#v=onepage&q=importance%20of%20parodies&f=false https://books.google.com/books?id=tcoOeaYQg-AC&pg=PA83&lpg=PA83&dq=neoclassicism+parody&source=bl&ots=w5__LthuN6&sig=9Q4FelfREMyP5l3v0MUBpzfubuU&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjBo6n3n_7KAhUE1xQKHWkcCJIQ6AEIKTAC#v=onepage&q=neoclassicism%20parody&f=false

Music
In musicology, a parody is considered an imitation of another piece of work. However, there are two different groupings of parodies. The first group of musical parodies contain deformation methods. Deformation is when the target subject of the parody undergoes modifications that distort or even destroy it. One example is the use of hyperboles for exaggeration and emphasis on particular signs or patterns in the original that has been parodied. The second parodic technique of agglutination where there is a clash of styles when it does not correspond to the original subject’s text.

In contemporary music, parodies use the same accompaniment music to a different textual lyrics. These are used to elicit comedic effects. One notable parodic artist is Weird Al Yankovic, with hit songs such as White & Nerdy and Straight Outta Lynwood. Another musical group, Mac Sabbath is a heavy metal band that parodies both Black Sabbath and McDonalds. http://weirdal.com/ https://www.facebook.com/macsabbath
