Irony in Antigone

Dramatic Irony Definition  when the audience knows something but some characters don’t Examples: –We know that Antigone buried Polynecies but Creon’s guards don’t know –We know that Haemon is dead at the end of the story, but his mother doesn’t find out until later.

Verbal Irony Definition  a figure of speech in which what is said is the opposite of what is meant (is implied by author or narrator). Examples: –The entire story demonstrates verbal irony because the author is stressing the fact that none of the characters learned from the story “Oedipus” that you shouldn’t try to overcome fate.

Situational Irony Definition  an outcome that turns out to be very difference from what was expected (when what a person intends does not happen) Examples: –Creon thinks that by ordering people not to bury Polynecies good things will happen (he is wrong, it just causes death) –Creon thinks that by locking Antigone up it will solve his problems and end the plague (which doesn’t happen)
