Both Uses of
mock
in
Man And Superman
- Here you have freedom in love and in morality mocking exquisitely at slavery to them, and interesting you, attracting you, tempting you, inexplicably forcing you to range the hero with his enemy the statue on a transcendant plane, leaving the prudish daughter and her priggish lover on a crockery shelf below to live piously ever after.†
Chpt Ded.
- These are devils, mocking me.†
Chpt 3 *
Definition:
-
(mock as in: don't mock me) make fun of (ridicule--sometimes by imitating in an exaggerated manner)
or (more rarely): just to make fun or to be ridiculous without targeting anyone as a victimeditor's notes: These senses of mockery come together when a comedian pokes fun at a politician by pretending to be the politician and saying ridiculous things.
