There are three different types of irony. Dramatic irony is when the reader or audience understands something that the characters do not. Situational irony is the difference between what happens and what was expected to happen. Verbal irony is when words express something contrary to the truth or when someone says the opposite of what they feel.

The passage, "May the Gods rain down all kinds of fortune on your lives, misfortune never harbor in your homeland," is from <em>The Odyssey</em>. Odysseus says this prayer after King Alcinous told the nobles to be generous with their gifts. It is ironic because Odysseus is the reasoning for their suffering. It is an example of situational irony because Odysseus is causing their misfortune and saying a prayer that there not be misfortune in their land.

Why does Stacey’s wool jacket become a more emotionally charged symbol as the plot unfolds?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

It becomes an emotionally charged symbol when He gave it away to cunny T.J and uncle Hammer seized the opportunity to teach him some lessons about life.

Explanation:

Stacey's wool jacket was a gift that was handed to him by Uncle Hammer. Stacey's parents were of little means so the expensive jacket though a little oversize got the admiration of all in the house including Stacey himself. But when they went to church and T.J., his friend saw him in the jacket, he covered his jealousy by taunting Stacey, telling him that he looked like a preacher in the coat. Stacey who was intimidated by this later gave his coat away.

When Unce Hammer learned of this, he was angry but used the opportunity to teach Stacey that when he had something good, he should never be intimidated by others or convinced to give it away. He maintained that T.J. should have the coat since he knew its value and was able to make Stacey give it away.
