Thanks for your brilliant presentation! I'm deeply impressed by your creative way of presentation-introducing the author's life in the first person. And the part of dramatic irony also has caught my attention. I would like to know more about it, so I search for more information.


Dramatic irony is an important stylistic device that is commonly found in plays, movies, theaters, and sometimes in poetry. Storytellers use this irony as a useful plot device for creating situations in which the audience knows more about the situations, the causes of conflicts, and their resolutions before the leading characters or actors. That is why readers observe that the speech of actors takes on unusual meanings.
For instance, the audience knows that a character is going to be murdered, or will make a decision to commit suicide; however, one particular character or others may not be aware of these facts. Hence, the words and actions of characters would suggest a different meaning to the audience from what they indicate to the characters and the story. Thus, it creates intense suspense and humor. This speech device also emphasizes, embellishes, and conveys emotions and moods more effectively.

However, I haven't found any examples of Max Schulman's use of this literary device. Could you please list some examples and analyze them for me? Thanks again~
