  5. THREE TYPES OF IRONY

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

  7. 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!

  8. Verbal Irony is NOT the same thing as a lie. With verbal irony, the speaker intends others to knowthat what he or she means is different or opposite from what is said. I absolutely love my haircut and feel sensational!

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

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

  11. 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.

  12. IRONIC by Alanis Morissette A traffic jam when you're already lateA no-smoking sign on your cigarette breakIt's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knifeIt's meeting the man of my dreamsAnd then meeting his beautiful wifeAnd isn't it ironic... don't you thinkA little too ironic... and yeah I really do think...Is there situational irony in this song?

  13. NO! • Situational Irony = Bad Luck • What actually happens must be the opposite of or differ greatly fromwhat was expected to happen.

  14. HYPOCRISY is a type of Situational Irony

  15. 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

  16. 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

  17. Hypocrisy Example

  18. 3. Dramatic or Tragic Irony

  19. 3. Dramatic or Tragic Irony • A situation where a character whose knowledge is limited says, does, or encounters something of greater significance than he or she knows • In other words, when the audience knows a truth that one or more of the characters do not yet know or understand

  20. Dramatic/Tragic Irony - Romeo and Juliet • At the end of this play, what do we, the audience, know that Romeo doesn’t know?

  21. Dramatic/Tragic Irony - Lost • There was always a lot of dramatic irony on the TV show Lost. Because of flashbacks, we as an audience often knew truths other characters had not yet learned.

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

  23. Nearly every horror movie needs Dramatic Irony to work! • We know what’s coming…but the guy in the tie doesn’t. Dramatic Irony creates suspense!

  24. As you read: • How did Mary react after killing her husband (was she upset)? • What steps does Mary take to cover her tracks before the police arrive? • How does Mary get rid of the murder weapon? • I Mary a static or dynamic character? Support your answer with examples from the text.
