1. An example of ‘situational irony’ is existent in both Von Gradwitz and Znaeym shouting for help. Both characters want to be saved from their fate, but they are unaware of the consequences of making noise. Ironically, both men yell hoping that their own followers would come to the rescue. Their yells only attract a pack of wolves that is assumed to kill them both.

2. When Ulrich von Gradwitz expresses his desire to come across Georg Znaeym “man to man, with none to witness.” This highlights the savage, vengeful relationship that exists between the two families which is ironic that almost immediately, the two rivals meet together, alone in the forest. The true irony in von Gradwitz’s desires comes after the encounter. The falling tree hinders both men’s ability to seek revenge. Wishing to be alone, von Gradwitz planned to forever distance himself from Znaeym, but in reality their solitude brought them closer than ever and eventually to an inferred fate of death by wolves.
