Dramatic irony is when the audience knows something which the character does not.For example, in Oedipus Rex, Oedipus does not know that his wife is really his mother, but the audience does.
Creon is the the brother of Jocasta, the mother of Oedipus so brother in law to Laius her husband.
Dynamic Irony is when an audience knows or sees something that a character does not know. There is a discrepancy between what the character thinks is true and what the audience knows to actually be true. The audience therefore feels an imaginary superiority over the character(s) in question.
