Summary/Abstract: From the ancient times to the present, irony – as a complex literary structure – evades strict definingdue to its ambivalence. Detecting its forms in literary text is a complex task that requires a two-way engagement, i. e. it is created by the dual relationship between an author and a reader of a text. Alija Isaković is one of the authors in whose prose works the ironic discourse is present in various forms. The paper discusses to what extent ironic discourse contributes to the formation of structure and meaning of a text, as well aswhat its modificationsare in Isaković’s narrative process.irony; discourse; Alija Isaković; narrative text;
