Description

Explore the complex world of irony through this comprehensive collection from Cambridge University Press. As the first multidisciplinary anthology of its kind, this handbook examines the significance of both verbal and situational irony across language, thought, and human action. This volume organizes research into five central themes: the scope of irony in human experience, its impact on personal and social life, its role in linguistic communication, its relation to affect, and its use in expressive contexts. By bringing together perspectives from various academic fields, including psychology, linguistics, philosophy, and literature, this text provides a deep look into how irony functions in our daily lives and artistic expressions. Whether you are studying cognitive psychology or linguistic communication, this handbook serves as a foundational resource for understanding how irony shapes human thought and social interaction.
