This paper revisits some old issues of irony, i.e., situational vs. verbal irony, and irony vs. paradox, in order to further clarify the issues. Although these issues seem to have been fully discussed, there are still unresolved and/or vague aspects that need to be accounted for. This paper also revisits the issue of theorizing the phenomenon of verbal irony, which has long been scrutinized by many philosophers and linguists including Aristotle, Grice, Sperber and Wilson, and recently, Utsumi and Attardo.

본 연구의 목적은 '아이러니(Irony)'의 특성과 이를 시각화 하는 과정들을 중점적으로 연구한다. '아이러니'의 수사법을 사용하는 방식은 미술작품에서 시각효과를 통해 시각언어를 드러내는 방식과 일치하는 지점이 있다. '아이러니'의 수사법과 유사한 방식으로 미술사에서 등장하는 '데페이즈망(Dépaysement)'을 예로 들 수 있다. '데페이즈망'은 여러 가지 혼용된 기법으로 '낯설게 하기'의 수사법을 통해 메시지를 전달하게 된다. 서로 반대되는 논리를 지닌 이미지들을 한 화면에 동시에 구성하여 '시각적 아이러니'를 구사한다. 반대되거나 모순되는 이미지들로 상황들을 연출하고, 이미 알고 있는 방식과는 다른 방식으로 비꼬아 이미지와 상황을 모호하게 만들어 나가는 공통적 특징을 지닌다. 결론적으로 '아이러니'의 특성과 '데페이즈망'의 특성은 일치하며, '시각적 아이러니'의 분석을 통해 시각언어를 이해한다.

The visual humor can be regarded as an original source for creative ideation. There are several types of humor. for example,'wit, satire, irony and so on. These can be motivations of developing an up-to-date idea. Wit differs from most humor in being purely intellectual, rather than relying on incongruities that come up naturally in many situations. The humor of words contains pun, hyperbole, repetition, and comparison or contrast. Especially in case of pun, it can be most important type of humor for making analytical and humorous effects visually. Pun, meaning the humor of double meaning, furnish us with much of our humor. The concept of pun is the most valuable for creating the visual humor by substituting, combining and manipulating symbols. There are essentially three distinct categories of puns : the literal pun, the suggestive pun, and the comparative pun. All types of puns belong to one of these three groups. The definitions are simple to understand and easy to apply for creating the visual humor, In order to develop a better conceptual model, (this researcher) reexamine the concept of humor, the relationship of humor to various types of message processing, and the relationship of humor to various aspects of message. This thesis. is primarily concerned with basic theories of humor such as concepts of humor, types of humor and analysis of humor. And this contains the research of humor's communications effects and theory of humor response with literature reviews. Modem theories of humor response generally fall into three major schools : Incongruity theories, Superiority theories and Arousal (Relief theories. Together these three approaches address the cognitive-perceptual, affective-evaluative and psycho-dynamic dimensions of a subject's humor response. The literature research of humor and humor response theory in communications and visual communications can help the visual application of humor concepts and usefulness of visual humor appeals. This research agreed that the humor and visual humor must be very effective at being as a means for the advertising expression, not for the purpose itself. In addition, this research is aimed at studying significations and usefulness of visual humor through semiotic approaches in the near future. Then it can be essencial research for the appropriate situational uses of humor related to media, product, and audience factors, such as nationality, age, standard of living, sexuality, and so on.
