| 总结: | After a brief discussion on the nature of Pauline irony, the ironic discourse in 2 Corinthians 10-13 is investigated. It is argued that 2 Corinthians 10-13 is an ironic discourse with at least three intersecting levels of irony, namely dissimulative, existential, and paradoxical irony. An awareness of the irony in 2 Corinthians 10-13 has an important bearing on the interpretation of the text. It becomes clear that Paul refers to his authority in an ironic sense. By means of irony he also heightens the pathos of this passage, which enables one to understand it as a peroratio. If this rule is the case, there is no need to regard 2 Corinthians 10-13 as a separate letter in the Corinthian correspondence. |
