Abstract

This paper explores the multifaceted nature of irony as a stylistic device in language, emphasizing its role in creating artistic discourse. The study delves into the pragmatic and cognitive aspects of irony, examining its reliance on verbal competence, contextual cues, and the relationship between speakers. Drawing on the contributions of philosophers and linguists, the paper situates irony within the broader context of semiotics, language, and thought. Pragmalinguistic features of irony, such as context sensitivity, tone, and cultural norms, are analyzed for their role in shaping the pragmatic function and effectiveness of irony in communication. The research also highlights the cognitive complexity involved in creating and understanding irony, emphasizing the importance of judgment and conceptual connections.
