Answer:

Irony.

Explanation:

An irony is a literary device used by the writer to show a contrast between the expectations and the reality. The words, in this device, is used as such to reveal the difference between the actual and intended meaning of the word.

In the given statement the literary device of irony is used. It is taken from the play named "The Outside" written by Susan Glaspell; a one-act play. The writer, through this play, tried to convey the emptiness of Mrs. Patrick who resides in the lifesaving station with her servant.

The line stated in the question is ironic because though the name where Mrs. Patrick resides is called 'lifesaving station', she has lost the hope of living and chose a life of isolation.

So, the correct answer is irony.

What did Greek drama primarily consist of before it evolved to include actors and dialouge
Elodia [21]
Greek drama originally was designed to praise gods, mostly Dionysus. The plays were not tragic or comic and were designed to praise the gods and usually consisted of songs or ceremonies that were designed to raise their value among the people. Eventually they became a bit more down to Earth and dialogue and actors were developed.
