    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.
