520 8  How is The Simpsons a satirical artwork engaged with 
       important social, political, and cultural issues? Matthew 
       A. Henry offers the first comprehensive understanding of 
       the show as a satire and explores the ways in which The 
       Simpsons participates in the so-called "culture war" 
       debates taking place in American society. Situating The 
       Simpsons within the framework of satirical humor in 
       American media, the tradition of the nuclear family sitcom,
       and the history of the Fox Television network, this book 
       explores American culture thematically, examining how the 
       show satirically engages with issues of race and ethnicity,
       national identity, gender and sexuality, social and 
       economic class, and religion--Publisher description.
