Discussed the different sources of irony and how they play out in LotF so far.

Verbal Irony: 
  • Saying something when you mean something completely different. Sarcasm is a form of this.
Situational Irony: 
  • When a reader or character expects one thing to happen, but something entirely different happens.  Writers often use this device to make their stories interesting or humorous.
Dramatic Irony:
  • A situation in a narrative in which the reader has knowledge of present or future circumstances of which the characters are ignorant.


CHAPTER 9: Oh, poor Simon
Situational Irony:
◦Wow, these kids are really getting out of hand about the beast. Oh good, Simon’s here! Let’s listen to what he has to say! Oh God! Oh. We killed him… damn.

Dramatic Irony:
◦We know Simon is the only one who knows what the “beast” really is, both in the parachuter and the Lord of the Flies.
