Irony and Characterization review

Verbal irony is when a person says or writes one thing and means another, or uses words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of the literal meaning.

Here are the three kinds of irony of which you should be aware!

THERE ARE THREE TYPES…. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THEY ARE?

Presentation transcript:

THREE TYPES OF IRONY

1. Verbal Irony the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning. In other words, you say one thing but actually mean the opposite.

Verbal Irony For example, in Julius Caesar, Mark Antony repeatedly says "and Brutus is an honorable man" in the famous “Friends, Romans, countrymen” speech… …but really, I think Brutus is pond scum because he stabbed Caesar!

The Crucible Act I – Verbal Irony Parris: There is a party in this church. I am not blind; there is a faction and a party. Proctor: Against you? Putnam: Against him and all authority! Proctor: Why, then I must find it and join it.

Verbal Irony is NOT the same thing as a lie. With verbal irony, the speaker intends others to know that what he or she means is different or opposite from what is said. I really love my haircut and feel very handsome!

SARCASTIC Verbal Irony often involves a SARCASTIC tone Honey, your room is absolutely beautiful. I’ve never been prouder of you than right now!

2. Situational Irony There is an incongruity--a big difference (sometimes 180 degrees)--between what is logically expected to happen and what actually happens.

Situational Irony

Situational Irony Examples A man goes over the giant waterfall Niagara Falls in a barrel and survives, only to take a cleanup shower where he slips on the soap and dies from trauma. An anti-technology website A woman in need of medical help is run over by an ambulance.

A common misuse of the word irony

Situational Irony is not the same thing as bad luck or coincidence What actually happens must be the opposite of or differ greatly from what was expected to happen.

The Crucible - Situational Irony When Hale quizzes John in Act II about the Ten Commandments. Considering what’s been going on in his life, the last commandment you’d logically expect John Proctor to forget is…. the one about adultery!

HYPOCRISY is a type of Situational Irony

What is hypocrisy? The practice of professing beliefs, feelings, or virtues that one does not really hold or practice Saying you believe one thing but then doing something that contradicts that belief

What is hypocrisy? The act of condemning another person when the critic is guilty of the act for which he/she demands that the accused be condemned This is also sometimes described using the idiom--the pot calling the kettle black

3. Dramatic or Tragic Irony

a character whose knowledge is limited says, does, or encounters something of greater significance than he or she knows

In other words, when we the audience/reader know a truth that one or more of the characters do not yet know or understand 3. Dramatic or Tragic Irony

Dramatic/Tragic Irony

Dramatic/Tragic Irony - Romeo and Juliet At the end of this play, what do we, the audience, know that Romeo does not?

Dramatic/Tragic Irony - Titanic Why is there dramatic irony in this story from the first frame of the movie?

The Crucible – End of Act I By the end of Act I, when Tituba, Abigail, and other girls are accusing women in the village of witchcraft, why is there DRAMATIC IRONY? ( Remember to think about us. What do we know that other characters do not?)
