1 Irony in The Yellow Wallpaper I may not be the most reliable source, but I think my situation may be ironic! English 2 Honors Outcome A: Tone
2 Irony Review You ll need to know these for your benchmark Dramatic Irony: When readers know more about the situation than characters know. Situational Irony: Contrast between what is expected to happen and what really happens. *Involves a twist for the characters involved AND the audience Verbal Irony: When someone states one thing and means another.
3 Gilman s story is built on irony. What about this story is surprising and/or ironic? SURPRISE because the protagonist s inner conflict will inevitably catch someone off-guard (in this case, the husband. Audience knew she was getting sicker and sicker, so not totally surprised) when it presents itself suddenly. IRONY because of the clash of contradictory perceptions. Irony: clash between someone's perception of a situation and the actual meaning of that situation.
4 THE CLASH OF PERCEPTIONS Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper Jane s internal thoughts and dialogue (language) create a naïve tone, which reveal that what she views as John s "careful and loving" attentions in reality make her sicker. This ironic gap between her husband's notions and her own experience forms the basis for the story, ending as a liberation for her and a shock for him. Gilman s use of language and first person narrator introduces a clash of perspectives between her own experience of depression and her husband's dismissive treatment of it. Gilman displays John s condescending tone towards his wife s wishes. what the audience sees Tone = The narrator s obsessive attitude
5 Irony: "The Yellow Wallpaper" 1. Find an example of irony within the short story. 2. Why is it important? "I get unreasonably angry with John sometimes. I'm sure I never used to be so sensitive. I think it is due to this nervous condition. Dramatic irony highlights the difference in perception between Jane s view and the audience s view of her situation. Audience has textual evidence that says HER SICKNESS IS WORSENING, and she is unreasonably angry with John because he does not listen to her needs about her nervous condition.
6 Irony: "The Yellow Wallpaper" Dramatic irony; must prove with textual evidence that the audience has information before the characters. It does not rely on the audience member s gut feeling. It is clearly stated. If you do not have evidence and are surprised in the end, it is situational irony.
7 Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper? Jane perceives her situation to be one of "unreasonable anger," but at the same time her naïve revelations of her husband s actions do not surprise the audience. Verbal irony: focus on contradiction between the "literal" and "real' meaning of words. Jane says her anger is "unreasonable." Audience suspects likely, if honest with herself, she thinks her anger is "reasonable. Note author s use of DIDtLS.
8 "John is away all day, and even some nights when his cases are serious. I am glad my case is not serious! But these nervous troubles are dreadfully depressing (Gilman). Dramatic irony: The audience knows the situation is serious because nervous problems are real and she is changing in language, relationship, perception. She thinks a woman lives in the wallpaper. That is serious. Verbal irony: Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper Jane says she is glad her case is not serious, but she must unconsciously know how serious it is because she admits the troubles are dreadfully depressing.
9 Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper "Dear John! He loves me very dearly and hates to have me sick. I tried to have a real earnest reasonable talk with him the other day " (Gilman). Dramatic irony: The audience sees John's actions completely contradict Jane's perception of him as loving. EX: He does not have an "earnest or reasonable" talk with Jane. He simply tells her what to do. He does not listen to what she wants/needs. Verbal irony: He loves me- she states. He does not listen to me contradicts that.
10 Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper Oppression/imprisonment + irony Behind the outside pattern "dim shapes get clearer every day." The shapes, or shape, resemble "a woman stooping down and creeping about behind that pattern. Prior the shape was a formless sort of figure." Now, it is "like a woman. A woman is held prisoner or oppressed (by her husband/social expectations).
11 Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper The moonlight makes the pattern into "bars. Daylight is violent like a prison guard: "It slaps you in the face, knocks you down, and tramples upon you. It is like a bad dream. Not coincidentally, these reflections occur soon after a conversation in which John has "slapped down" some of her requests with an authoritarian condescending tone ("little girl," "bless her little heart"). John has kept her in the tower, denied her any opportunity to use her intellect and imagination, and refused to allow her to have any "stimulating company. Besides a physical jail, what other type of prison might hold a person back?
12 Irony: The Yellow Wallpaper Irony emphasizes essential conflict Circumstances/social expectations/her husband seem(s) to require that her truth be kept buried beneath the surface. John cannot see that his treatment while with good intentions from a doctor and husband - to make her well contradicts the actual meaning. He makes her sicker. Jane cannot force into fully explicit awareness the nature of her situation and her own superior understanding of it.
13 Review 1. Two additional examples of dramatic and verbal irony in this story? 2. When did you realize something was wrong with the narrator? The wallpaper? 3. What importance do the windows have? 4. Why doesn t John recognize her suffering as serious? 1. Is her claim valid?
14 Reflect 4. Why does Jane project her inner feelings on the wallpaper? Why can't she face them directly? 5. A first person narrator is always inherently unreliable. The speaker might be biased or intentionally deceitful. Do you think that her characterization of John is reliable? What might John s version of the story sound like?
