The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain” In (1926) was a short essay written by poet Langston Hughes for The Nation magazine. It became the manifesto of the Harlem Renaissance. In it Hughes said that black artists in America should stop copying whites, that they will never create anything great that way. Instead they should be proud of who they are, proud to be black, and draw from black culture. Not “white is right” but, as we would now say, “Black is beautiful”.
Answer:
The correct answer is: situational, dramatic and verbal irony.
Explanation:
The irony is a literary device we use to express certain meanings by using language that signifies the opposite, to indicate a higher negative implication through the positive wording.
There are three types of irony: dramatic, situational, and verbal.
Dramatic irony represents the situation when the audience understands what is happening in a certain situation better than the characters. The best example of this type of irony can be found in Shakespeare's <em>Romeo and Juliet</em> when Romeo dies because he believes Juliet is dead.
Situational irony occurs when some action has the opposite result from what is expected.
For example:
John realizes it's his wife's birthday. He goes to buy her a present, and after buying it, he realizes the birthday was three days ago.
Verbal irony occurs when the speaker says the opposite of what he/she thinks.
For example:
The cousin you hate is coming to see you and you are saying: <em>What a nice surprise</em>!
<u>What Roosevelt says is necessary to make these things possible is </u><u>HIGHER TAXES! </u>
- This is obvious because, not only does he emphasize this, but high taxes means more government spending money to fund medicare or scientific advancements.
