RHETORICAL DEVICE CONTINUED
IRONY
Irony is a rhetorical device, literary technique, or
situation in which there is a clash between the literal
and the implied meaning. Irony implies the opposite
of what is actually said or done. Often, irony is used
to highlight the truth of a situation by using
language, images or actions that are different or
opposite in order to express meaning.
For example: “This explanation of irony is as clear
as mud!”
There are 3 types of irony: dramatic, situational and
verbal.

RHETORICAL DEVICE CONTINUED RHETORICAL DEVICE DEFINITION A clash between what the words say and what they mean. Irony has 3 forms: situational, verbal, and dramatic. Irony* A statement that is self contradictory because it often contains two statements that are both true, but in general, cannot both be true at the same time. Paradox A question that you ask without expecting an answer. The question might be one that does not have an answer. It might also be one that has an obvious answer but you have asked the question to make a point, to persuade or for literary effect. Rhetorical Question The placement of two or more ideas, characters, actions, settings, phrases or words side-by-side for a particular purpose, for example to highlight contrast or for rhetorical effect. Juxtaposition/ Contrast Taking an object or text from one context and using it in another context allowing new insights into the original text/object and emphasising contextual differences. Texts can be appropriated for a range of purposes, including satirical criticism, consideration of existing ideas in a new context and exploration of cultural assumptions. The mass media frequently appropriate words, images and icons from other cultural contexts. Appropriation
