  2. Today’s Objectives • I can identify and understand situational, dramatic, and verbal irony used by Shakespeare. • I can understand the effect irony has on literature.

  3. Friar’s Plan (page 178, Lines 146-158) • Go to Juliet’s and comfort her • Leave before daybreak • Go to the city of Mantua • You will live there until we find the right time to make your marriage public & stop the fighting between the 2 families • The Prince will then end the banishment • You can return and live a happy life with Juliet

  4. Review: Situational Irony • When a character makes a decision and the outcome is different from what they expected • 3.4 Lord Capulet wants Juliet to be happy, so he sets up the marriage to Paris-instead this decision makes her upset

  5. Dramatic Irony • When the audience knows something the characters do not *Makes the audience become more dramatic • The Capulets think that Juliet is crying over Tybalt, but the audience knows she is really crying over Romeo’s banishment. • Lord Capulet arranges the marriage between Paris and Juliet, and the audience knows she is already married to Romeo.

  6. 3.5 Verbal Irony • When a character says something, but means the opposite. • Page 194, Lines 93-95 (Example 1) Lady Capulet hears: “Indeed, I never shall be satisfied with Romeo, till I behold him dead. Is my poor heart for a kinsman vexed. Juliet means: “Indeed, I never shall be satisfied with Romeo, till I behold him. Dead is my poor heart for a kinsman vexed.

  7. 3.5 Verbal Irony • Page 194, Lines 96-97 • “Madam, if you could find out but a man to bear a poison, I would temper it, That Romeo should, upon receipt thereof, soon sleep in quiet.” • Temper: Mix it (Lady Capulet) • Temper: Dilute it (Juliet)
