Epigram

Epigram adalah sebuah pernyataan singkat, peminatan, kenangan dan terkadang pernyataan mengejutkan atau satir. Kata tersebut berasal dari kata bahasa Yunani: ἐπίγραμμα epigramma "inskripsi" dari ἐπιγράφειν epigraphein "untuk menulis, untuk menginskripsi", dan perangkat sastra yang dipakai selama lebih dari dua milenium.

Buku 1628 Robert Hayman Quodlibets berisi sebagian besar teks dari epigram.
