The term "irony" means "an outcome or act opposite or other than what should be expected in a situation." Irony is often associated with sarcasm and wit, such as asking the fan of a band how she liked a concert, and the reply being, "Oh, it was horrible. I loved it!" Situational irony is often used by authors to point out things in life that are problematic. Consider the paragraph where Felix is teaching Safie English from Volney's Ruins of the Empires.
