Epigrams can be hard to find because they have a very broad definition. What one person considers an epigram, another may consider an elegy, poem, or perhaps even a song.

The most basic definition of an epigram is a brief, clever, and memorable statement. Some of them are formulated with satirical purposes in mind, and others are purposely meant to be confusing.

For example, John Donne uses an epigram in his poem "Hero and Leander" when he writes:"Both robb'd of air, we both lie in one groundBoth whom one fire had burnt, one water drown'd."

While there is certainly no apparent humor in this poem, there is a contradiction. How could two people die by both fire and water? Examining the other uses and purposes of epigrams helps to answer that question.
