🎭 Let’s talk about irony! From ancient Greek comedies to modern literature, irony adds depth, humor, and critique to storytelling. In this quick and engaging video, I explain:
✅ The Origin of Irony: From the Greek word eiron, meaning dissembler.
✅ Types of Irony:
Verbal Irony: Saying one thing, meaning another (The Rape of the Lock by Alexander Pope).
Dramatic Irony: Audience knows more than the character (Oedipus Rex by Sophocles).
Structural Irony: Two-layered storytelling (A Modest Proposal by Jonathan Swift).
Cosmic Irony: The universe mocking human effort (Tess of the d’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy).
Romantic Irony: Literature aware of itself (Don Juan by Lord Byron).
This video is perfect for high school, college, and university students preparing for exams, essays, or projects on literary devices and techniques.

********************
Hi, I’m Monami Mukherjee, and I’ve been teaching literature since 2005. I studied at Lady Brabourne College and the University of Calcutta, and I completed my MPhil from Calcutta University. I’m super passionate about topics like Feminism, Post-colonialism, and Modernism. I believe learning is a conversation, and I strive to make every class feel like one. My goal is always to help my students not just understand literature but feel it, question it, and find their own voice in the process.
