Answer:
ironic
Explanation:
This answer can best be characterized as ironic. Irony is a rhetorical device in which what appears, on the surface, to be the case is very different from what is actually the case. In this example, the Sirian reacts very angrily to the notion of wars, and he seems very upset with the violence that is involved in human wars. The logical assumption for us to make is that he is a pacifist and hates violence. However, he reacts by saying he wants to crush a whole anthill of assassins. This shows that his reaction is in fact as violent as that of humans, which is ironic.
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.
