5 Page 5 Rhetorical devices alliteration: the repetition of a particular sound Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. anaphora: consists of repeating a sequence of words at the beginnings of neighboring clauses, thereby lending them emphasis. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. -Charles Dickens A Tale of Two Cities apostrophe: when a speaker or writer breaks off and directs speech to an imaginary person or abstract quality or idea. In dramatic works and poetry written in or translated into English, such a figure of speech is often introduced by the exclamation "O". "Where, O death, is thy sting? where, O death, thy victory?"-1 Corinthians 15:55 asyndeton: is a figure of speech in which one or several conjunctions are omitted from a series of related clauses. "...and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth". -Abraham Lincoln, Gettysburg Address Veni, vidi, vici. -Caesar chiasmus: ABBA Today, chiasmus is applied fairly broadly to any "criss-cross" structure, although in classical rhetoric it was distinguished from other similar devices, such as the antimetabole. In its classical application, chiasmus would have been used for structures that do not repeat the same words and phrases, but invert a sentence's grammatical structure or ideas. "Ask not what your country can do for you ask what you can do for your country."-j.f. Kennedy "But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first." Matt. 19:30 Old King Cole was a merry old soul, and a merry old soul was he. enjambment: is the breaking of a syntactic unit or a clause over two or more lines without a punctuated pause.
6 Page 6 Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness; but still will keep A bower quiet for us -Keats, Endymion hyperbaton: is a figure of speech in which words within a sentence change place from their natural order. "Destroy the Sith, we must."-yoda hyperbole: is the use of exaggeration. The bag weighed a ton. litotes: in which understatement is employed for rhetorical effect, principally via double negatives. "She is not as young as she was." metaphor: is a figure of speech that describes a subject by asserting that it is, on some point of comparison, the same as another otherwise unrelated object. A simile differs from a metaphor in that the latter compares two unlike things by saying that the one thing is the other thing. All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances- Shakespeare, As You Like It metonymy: is a figure of speech in which a thing or concept is called not by its own name but rather by the name of something intimately associated with that thing or concept. Hollywood (the film industry) China (dishware from China) The Oval Office (the authority of the President) onomatopoeia: is a word that phonetically imitates or suggests the source of the sound that it describes. Quack, snip, bang personification: is attribution of human form or other characteristics to anything other than a human being. polysyndeton: the use of several conjunctions in close succession.
7 Page 7 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. -Genesis 7:22-24 rhetorical question: is a figure of speech in the form of a question that is asked in order to make a point. The butler did it... or did he? How do you solve a problem like Maria?- The Sound of Music simile: is a figure of speech that directly compares two things through some connective, usually "like", "as", "than", or a verb such as "resembles". A simile differs from a metaphor in that the latter compares two unlike things by saying that the one thing is the other thing. "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? / Thou art more lovely and more temperate:" William Shakespeare, Sonnet 18 "Vincent is as strong as a lion" synchesis: interlocked word order, in the form A-B-A-B. A line of Latin verse in the form adjective A - adjective B - verb - noun A - noun B, with the verb in the center (or a corresponding chiastic line, again with the verb in the center), is known as a golden line. "Vi superum, saevae memorem Iunonis ob iram," with Saevae (cruel) modifying Iunonis, and memorem (remembering or mindful) modifying iram (anger). Aeneid Book 1 "I run and shoot, fast and accurate." tmesis: is a linguistic phenomenon in which a word or phrase is separated into two parts, with other words interrupting between them. circumdare becomes: circum virum dant: "they surround the man".
8 Page 8 Scansion practice HW: Aeneid I.1-7. Arma virumque canō, Trōiae quī prīmus ab orīs Ītaliam, fātō profugus, Lāvīniaque vēnit lītora, multum ille et terrīs iactātus et altō vī superum saevae memorem Iūnōnis ob īram; multa quoque et bellō passūs, dum conderet urbem, 5 inferretque deōs Latiō, genus unde Latīnum, Albānīque patrēs, atque altae moenia Rōmae.
