Irony vs. Satirical Discourse
Elżbieta Sidoruk
Uniwersytet w BiałymstokuAbstract
The subject of analysis in the article is a relation between irony and satire understood as discursive practice. Putting under scrutiny the concept of the satirical text proposed by Paul Simpson in his work "On the Discourse of Satire", the author argues that irony understood as a form of expression is not a constructive element of satire.
