Answer and Explanation:

<u>Dramatic irony is related to a situation in which the audience knows and understands something that the characters themselves don't.</u> In the epic poem "The Odyssey", the main character and hero Odysseus finally arrives home after years journeying back from the war in Troy, but his palace has been taken over by suitors trying to marry his wife. Odysseus is then disguised as a beggar by the goddess Athena.<u> This is an example of dramatic irony because no one knows that beggar is in fact the owner of that palace, not even his own son and wife. Odysseus, a wealthy, brave man appears to the characters completely changed when it comes to his looks. But his heart and mind are the same, and he soon claims his island and family back</u>.

Note: Since you only need two or three sentences, feel free to ignore or change the summary in the middle of the answer.
