Abstrakt
This bachelor thesis deals with the usage of irony in short stories written by a British author William Somerset Maugham. The theoretical part is divided into two chapters. The first one examines questions of narratology, focusing on different types of narrators and features they possess. The second part is dedicated to the term "pharmakos" or "scapegoat" which is considered to be a typical victim of irony. The connection of these issues with irony in Maugham's short stories is analysed in the practical part of the thesis.
