The best type of satire used by Twain in chapter 10 and 11 is Burlesque. A technique that writers use to expose the hypocricy, weakness, foolishness or corruption of an individual or society by using humour, with irony or sarcasm is called satire. Mark Twain used satire in his books to address controversial or taboo. When Huck runs away and encounters Jim, who illegally escaped his enslavement, he initially feels conflicted about supporting Jim. It is satirical because, in Huch's society, it was against the law to enslave a white person, but not a black person. The town people resort to misdeeds in an attempt to acquire the gold, even though it didn't belong to them. Twain satirizes that it is human nature to have and give in to temptations and that even people of high integrity have their weaknesses.
"Am a magician and attempt to modernize the past" that is how he used the technology of his time to trick people. Here Twain satirizing the romantic ideas of fairness and idealization of the middle ages, which was a favourite theme in novels written during his time.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
