This article discusses a neo-Gricean approach to irony, deception and humor developed by Marta Dynel, confronting some of its assumptions and implications with results of experimental research. It is stated that Dynel’s modifications and elaborations of Grice’s original theory of conversation improve its coherence and provide adequate methodological tools for a comprehensive model of irony, deception and humor in multi-party interactions, and also for teasing out subtypes of each of these phenomena. Questions regarding the compatibility of this model with experimental findings concern such issues as the relation of irony and deception to Theory of Mind, and the impact of “humor for humor’s sake” on hearers’ opinions. Although these issues are not addressed in Dynel’s philosophically-oriented framework, they are not necessarily incongruent with her perspective.
