Dramatic IronyDefinition:In literature, this is a plot device in which the
audience’s or reader’s knowledge of events or individuals surpasses that of the characters.

This may happen when, for example, a character reacts in an inappropriate or foolish way or when a character lacks self-awareness and thus acts under false assumptions.
