The irony in his poem is that his father is initially described as 'sceptic' and 'rationalist', but later on he displays complete irrationality by adopting religious and traditional methods to save the life of his wife. He even pours paraffin upon the bitten toe and sets fire to it. Thus, he is not stable in character, and abandons his beliefs completely. This is an example of SITUATIONAL IRONY.
Erik bitterly resents the necessity that compels him to literally wear a mask to hide his distorted face; however, ironically, Erik is much less masked than the other, metaphorically masked characters. Christine plays at a bogus engagement with Raoul, both Christine and Raoul try to deceive Erik, and even the Persian sometimes misrepresents himself by lying to Erik about why he has come. Therefore the masks in this musical present great situational irony. I hope this helps!
Holden used the word phony very often when describing people and things to create verbal irony.
My current favorite song that has irony is Kurt Cobaine's song Come As You Are. He repeats over and over I don't have a gun, but he committed suicide with a gun. That's irony!
Some different types of irony are verbal, dramatic and situational.
Verbal, situational, and dramatic irony are all forms of irony that involve a contrast between what is expected and what actually occurs. Verbal irony is when a character says something but means the opposite, situational irony is when the outcome is different from what is anticipated, and dramatic irony is when the audience knows something that the characters do not. They each bring about surprise or humor by playing with expectations.
They are no the same. If they were the same, they would not have different names.
Verbal irony is when a speaker says something but means the opposite (sarcasm), while situational irony occurs when there is a discrepancy between what is expected to happen and what actually happens in a situation. Verbal irony is expressed through words, while situational irony is evident in the events or outcomes that occur.
There is dramatic, situational, and verbal irony. Dramatic Irony- the contrast between what the character knows and what his audience knows. Situational Irony- the contrast between what was expected to happen and what actually ended up happening. Verbal Irony- the contrast between what is said and what is meant. These types of irony have to do with the conflict, theme, and setting.
All, except dramatic, situational, and verbal.
i think situational,dramatic, and verbal irony.
The three forms of irony are verbal irony, where a character says something but means the opposite; situational irony, where the outcome is different from what is expected; and dramatic irony, where the audience knows something the characters do not.
The three types of ironies in "The Catbird Seat" are dramatic irony, situational irony, and verbal irony. Dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows something that the characters do not. Situational irony involves a contrast between what is expected to happen and what actually happens. Verbal irony is when a character says one thing but means another.
The three most common types of irony in stories are verbal irony (when a character says something but means the opposite), situational irony (when the outcome of a situation is contrary to what was expected), and dramatic irony (when the audience knows more about a situation than the characters).
verbal irony had to do with words, but situational irony has to do wit events.
"The Necklace" by Guy de Maupassant features situational irony, where the outcome of the story is contrary to what the characters and readers expect. The twist at the end, revealing the true value of the necklace, is an example of situational irony.
