Bernesque poetry
Bernesque Poetry is a genre of satirical poetry that flourished during the Italian Renaissance. The style is named after Francesco Berni, an early pioneer of the style who popularized it across Europe.[1]
Tropes
Bernesque Poetry is noted for its humorous and mocking tone[2], as well as its tendency to make light of serious or distressing situations. Bernesque poetry often relies on double meanings which are deployed in a masterful way-characteristically incarnated in food items or objects of daily use.
