"It is a satire [,]"David Bevington writes in his essay about Ben Jonson's Volpone and continues without sparing the question of the play's genre another thought. There is, however, no unanimous opinion on the matter, as the ease with which Bevington comes to his conclusion would suggest. The play is too complex to be classified that quickly.
