Genesis and Catastrophe

We analysed this story in previous class. 

What did we talk about?

Irony

a situation in which something which was intended to have a particular result has the opposite or a very different result. 

The irony (of it) is that the new tax system will burden those it was intended to help.

a type of usually humorous expression in which you say the opposite of what you intend. 

Her voice heavy with irony, Simone said, "We're so pleased you were able to stay so long." (= Her voice made it obvious they were not pleased.)

Irony Vs. Sarcasm

The use of remarks that clearly mean the opposite of what they say, made in order to hurt someone's feelings or to criticize something in a humorous way. It is more painful than irony. 

"You have been working hard," he said with heavy sarcasm, as he looked at the empty page.

Irony: what is said about the baby

“you have a fine son” 

“this is a perfectly normal baby”

“I think you will like him” 

“he won’t bite you” 

“you should have heard him screaming” 

“there is nothing wrong with that child”
