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 ofirony employed in the novel and to reveal the meaning of the
types of 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 ofirony 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.
