Dramatic irony is a stylistic device that is most commonly used by storytellers, in plays, in the theater, and in movies. The irony is used as a plot device to create situations where the reader knows much more about the episodes and the resolutions before the chief character or characters.

Examples are:

In Merchant of Venice, the reader is aware that Lancelot is cheating his father openly; in Tempest, Prospero and the reader are aware of the presence of Gonzalo on the Island but Miranda does not.

In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo finds Juliet in deep and drugged slumber, assumes her dead, and kills himself ignorantly before Juliet wakes up, discovers her dead lover, and kills herself.

Should we be standing every time the national anthem is played or pledge of allegiance is recited explain your thoughts
Ivenika [448]

It all depends on one's confidence and way of expressing themselves. Personally, I would say no. After everything that's been going on in this horrid year of 2020, the BLM movement has reasons. Since society today <em>still</em> has to fight for black lives (as well as others that aren't cis, straight, white men), the Pledge of Allegince speaks lies. Many people may pledge "justice for all," but our actions speak different from our words. If you are safe and have the confidence to rebel for what is just, <em>do not stand</em>, as one with heart shall not stand for injustice.

Hope this helps!

I absolutely love writing stuff like this, and it feels good.

No Killing

No Stealing

No Lying

No being Mean

"what is the nature of mrs. mallard's "heart trouble," and why would the author mention it in the first paragraph? is there any
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Although Mrs. Mallard's hear trouble appears to refer only to a physical condition, her true trouble is that, despite the fact that she is married to a good man, she is unhappy because she does not feel free. In this sense, it is symbolic of the unease that this lack of independence brings her. Also, the mention of her heart condiion at the beinning ofthe paragraph anticipates her eventual death. At first, the reader might think that it is the news of her husband's death that will cause Mrs. Mallard's own decease, but what triggers her heart attack is the revelation that the news were false, and that she has lost all the freedom that she had just begun to envision.
