What kinds of irony are in 'The Gift of the Magi'?
Well, the central irony to "Just Lather, That's All" is that the barber feels that Captain Torres does not know that he is a rebel sympathiser, and thus he has his massive internal conflict over whether to kill him or not. However, it is only after the shave, as Captain Torres is leaving, that he reveals to both the barber and to the reader that he knew all along that the barber was a rebel sympathiser. This of course radically changes our opinion of Captain Torres. In "The Gift of the Magi," on the other hand, the massive irony is situational. Again, we only come to discover the irony as Della does, when she realised with a sinking realisation that both herself and Jim have sold their most precious possessions to buy a gift for the other that they now are unable to use. The use of situational irony in this story serves to highlight their self-sacrificial nature and reinforce the message of what true love is in terms of Christmas gift giving.
Can you explain how verbal and situational irony is used in the short story The Gift of the Magi?
Verbal irony is seen in the couple's sacrifice of their most prized possessions that ultimately become useless; Jim sells his watch to buy combs for Della's hair, but she has cut her hair to buy a chain for his watch. Situational irony is present in the couple's sacrificial actions, as they both make choices that render the other's gift impractical. Together, these ironic elements underscore the theme of selfless love and the unexpected outcomes of their sacrifices.

How does the author use situational irony to create a surprise ending how does the ironic tone in the story compared to the tone in The Gift of the Magi the stolen party?
In "The Gift of the Magi," the author uses situational irony by revealing that both the main characters sacrifice their most valuable possessions to buy gifts for each other that are now useless. This irony creates a surprising twist for the reader. In "The Stolen Party," the ironic tone is more subtle and revolves around the protagonist's naivety and sudden realization of class barriers.
