Last name 1 Student Name My speech topic is about using metaphors in a speech. 20 April 2014 Annotated Bibliography Aristotle. On Rhetoric: A Theory of Civic Discourse (2nd ed.). Trans, Kennedy, George. New York: Oxford University Press, 2007. Print. Aristotle recommended the use of metaphors when giving a speech because metaphor has clarity, the sweetness of poems and the strangeness of novelty. If the speaker wishes to enhance a thing, Aristotle advises speakers to use a metaphor using something of higher value in the same category; to denigrate a thing, use a metaphor of the same category of lower value. I love the poetic way metaphor was explained. “Metaphor.” Literary Devices, 2019, www.literarydevices.net/metaphor/ Accessed 15 July 2019. This online article explained that a metaphor is a figure of speech that compares two thing that have something(s) in common. One example is “This assignment is a breeze!” Xu, Xu. “Interpreting Metaphorical Statements.” Journal of Pragmatics 39.2 (2009): 1622-1636. ArticleFirst. Web. 10 March 2010. This article explained that unfamiliar concepts in a speech can be better understood by using metaphors when B is a widely known concept and A is not. A metaphor is when a speakers say A is B and a simile is when they say A is like B. This experiment found that audiences perceive a stronger connection to A, when a metaphor was used (A pen is a sword), than when a simile was used (A pen is like a sword). REQUIREMENTS 1.
