Riassunto

Irony is a salient feature of common discourse, yet in the translating world, it is considered a significant literary and cultural obstacle. This record seeks to tackle complicated ironical practices and contexts as well as to observe and comprehend the techniques and challenges involved in translating them. Filled with case studies and in-depth analyses, this examination challenges the putative untranslatability of irony and demonstrates how translating irony involves a series of interpretative gestures.
