"Satiro-Mastix; or, The Disentanglement of the Humorous Poet" is a comedy drama by the famous English playwright Thomas Dekker. This play, published in 1602, reflects the conflicting relationship between poets and satirists of the era. The main character, Satyr, opposes the poets, who consider themselves highly exalted and untouchable. He exposes their flaws and shortcomings, creating comic situations and a fun plot. "Satiro-Mastix" is not only a sharp satirical work, but also an interesting study of the art and poetry of that time. In this play, Dekker has successfully combined poignancy and depth, which makes it interesting for the modern reader, who appreciates deep meaning combined with humor and satire.
