It can be "both political and apolitical, both conservative and radical, both repressive and democratizing." Its political meaning—and very presence—may be ignored, read off from, or just read into texts and images depending upon the groups to which the readers belong. In mis regard, Linda Hutcheon's pluralist view of irony addresses a concrete, multicultural urgency. She convincingly argues that ironic meaning is fundamentally "relational," bringing "together ... the said and the unsaid, each of which takes on meaning only in relations to the other" (59). Irony does not only "dissemble," as its Greek etymology suggests; as a "relational strategy," it also reunites people and meanings. Most importantly, while underscoring the contribution of "discursive communities" to the actual enactment of ironic connotations, the critic rejects the canonical definition of irony as antiphrasis (58). Ironic discourse does not just mean different things to different people; these meanings (interpretations) need not write each other off since the ironic signification, the "unsaid," is not simply the opposite ofthe "said." In various interpretive contexts and from various standpoints, ironic discourse signifies differently—or may not signify at all. The examples the critic advances are very eloquent. Whether she deals with a Wagnerian or a Shakespearian production, with Foucault 's Pendulum, Coetzee's Foe, Anselm Kiefer's paintings, or a Royal Ontario Museum exhibit, Hutcheon's analyses are always compelling and illuminating. They convincingly argue for a "post-rhetorical," pluralist redefinition of irony.

By suggestion is meant the evocation ofobjects as opposed to their naming—the attempt to extract a pluraUty of signification from language whereby readers coUaborate vicariously with the text in order to produce meaning. This aesthetic project is outlined by Manarme in Sur l'Evolution litteraire as follows: "choisir un objet et en degager un etat d'âme, par une serie de dechiffrements"—the poet thus provides for the reader "cette joie deUcieuse de croire qu'Us creent" (Oeuvres Completes 869). Joyce stresses the importance of"sound sense," ofthe maUeable tangibiUty ofindivid- ual words, and most importantly of the attention demanded by the signifier, equal to that ofthe signified: Who in his heart doubts either that the facts offeminine clothiering are there allthe time orthat feminine fiction, strangerthan the facts, is there also atthe sametime, only a little to the rere? Orthat one may be sepa- rated from the other? Or that both may then be contemplated simulta- neously? Orthat eachmaybetaken up and considered inturn apart from the other? (Finnegans Wake 109.30-35) One must thus consider the coveringbefore whatis inside. The signifier functions no longer as a window through which we have direct access to meaning, but displays semantic polyvalency and uncertainty that put Unguisticcommunication into question and subsequently invigorate the poetic experience.
