Which sentences in this excerpt from William Dean Howells's "Editha" use an ironic tone?

English

Wewaii [24]3 years ago

The sentences in this excerpt of "Editha" that have an ironic tone are:

""To think of your having such a tragedy in your life!"

This sentence is ironic because Editha brought her tragedy on her own: the only reason her fiancé is dead, which lead to an argument with his mother, is because she insisted that he went to war, even threatened to end the engagement if he didn't.

" But when you consider how much this war has done for the country!"

This has an ironic tone because wars are never positive for a country. They represent a loss of life and a heavy weight in the economy.

If this is MLA format, in-text citations only require the author and the page number. if no author exists, then you provide the title and the page number. if there is no author and no page number, you simply give the title.

assuming the author is starks, the page is 97, and the title is "animals"--you only have to put (Starks 97) in parentheses. the author and the page is enough information for someone to access your source.

Lines 105-111: What do we learn about hale and Danforth characters from their dialogue in these lines
musickatia [10]

Answer and Explanation:

The lines present an indirect characterization of the characters, where we can know their characteristics through the dialogue.

In this case we can affirm, through the dialogue it is possible to recognize Danforth as a very serious and strict judge, since he demands that the depositions be based on evidence. Hale is very confident, as he believes I have proof for everything he wants to show.

This question is about the play "The crucible" that represents the moment of exteria and religiosity that promoted the Salem trials.
