Abstract

This research paper, entitled Irony in Makus Zusak’s The Messenger, is a textual analysis of The Messenger focusing in a study of irony. The analysis is aimed to find out the types of irony employed in the novel and to reveal the meaning of the irony. This research is framed by theory of irony proposed by Littel (2002) which he categorizes irony into three types: verbal irony, situational irony, and dramatic irony. Based on the findings, it is revealed that all the types of irony are found in the novel. It also discusses how context plays its role to help the construction of irony by employing theory of context proposed by Dijk (2008). In this novel, context helps the construction of irony by providing situations which make all participants, when the irony occurs, realize the existence of the irony. This research paper, which is also aimed to reveal the meaning of the irony, explains that from the irony, it can be revealed that The Messenger constructs an idea that a messenger is a message.
