While ironic language has captured the attention of theorists and scholars for centuries, it is only since the 1980s that psycholinguistic methods have been employed to investigate how readers and hearers detect, process, and comprehend ironic language. This Element reviews the foundational definitions, theories, and psycholinguistic models of ironic language, covering key questions such as the distinction between literal and ironic meaning, the role of contextual information during irony processing, and the cognitive mechanisms involved. These key questions continue to motivate new studies and methodological innovations, providing ample opportunity for future researchers who wish to continue exploring how ironic language is processed and understood." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Irony. 650 0 $a Psycholinguistics. 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781009234573 830 0 $a Cambridge elements. $p Elements in psycholinguistics. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20231103011659.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E80791F84D4311EEBB1CF29156ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
