The Satiric Decade analyzes the impact on republicanism of French political satire in newspapers, theaters, street behavior, and even the academy in the 1830s. Author Amy Wiese Forbes argues that satire gave rise to the critical spirit and republicanism that erupted in the 1848 Revolution and that propelled the process by which France evolved from an absolutist monarchy to a liberal and democratic polity in the 1870s.

Well-known scholars and poets living in sixteenth-century France, including Erasmus, Ronsard, Calvin, and Rabelais, promoted elite satire that "corrected vices" but "spared the person"—yet this period, torn apart by religious differences, also saw the rise of a much cruder, personal satire that aimed at converting readers to its ideological, religious, and, increasingly, political ideas. By focusing on popular pamphlets along with more canonical works, Less Rightly Said shows that the satirists did not simply renounce the moral ideal of elite, humanist scholarship but rather transmitted and manipulated that scholarship according to their ideological needs. Szabari identifies the emergence of a political genre that provides us with a more thorough understanding of the culture of printing and reading, of the political function of invectives, and of the general role of dissensus in early modern French society.

De la chute de Napoléon III en 1870 à la césure de la Première Guerre mondiale, la caricature politique des premières décennies de la troisième République va se déchaîner. Par opposition au discours républicain constitutionnel et institutionnel, elle a eu largement recours au vocable du corps pour personnifier et dénoncer. Le corps et ses métamorphoses ont ainsi été le lieu, dans la sphère de ľimage satirique, d’un contre-pouvoir efficace et percutant, essentiellement fondé sur le principe d’une dégradation déclinée sous de multiples formes, en regard et en dérision du culte du grand homme. La personnification des scandales, les déformations physiques, les régressions végétales ou animales et les insectisations ont constitué l’arsenal graphique et symbolique par lequel les caricaturistes antirépublicains ont attaqué le régime. On y retrouve en arrière-plan les théories scientifiques contemporaines — physiognomonie, phrénologie, morphophysiologie… —, les combats esthétiques et politiques et l'idéologie républicaine même, récupérée et détournée. Le « corps » politique reprend ici ses droits, à ses dépens, avec une outrance qui nous surprend. L’ouvrage comprend un ensemble d’annexes et un dictionnaire des caricaturistes et dessinateurs de presse, comportant de nombreuses données inédites.
