Abstract

Then, they discuss convergences with other figures that do qualify as variants of irony, such as sarcasm, antiphrasis, satire, and prolepsis ([5], [6]). Once the structural elements of irony have been analyzed, the authors compare irony with banter, which, despite some similarities, cannot be considered a case of irony. Re-adapted uses of irony arise from the evolution of basic uses of irony, which means that socio-cultural circumstances or literary periods do not give rise to different types of irony, but rather reshape the already existing ones. Scholars devoted to the study of irony have often been concerned with either verbal irony (cf. [1]; [10]) or situational irony ([3]; [2]), treating them as separate phenomena.
