This document defines and provides examples of three literary devices: apostrophe, metonymy, and conceit. It explains that apostrophe involves directly addressing an absent or imaginary person. Metonymy is substituting the name of one object for a closely associated object. Conceit involves likening two vastly different objects together through similes or metaphors. Examples are given for each device to illustrate its proper usage. The document concludes by suggesting ways to remember the definitions of these three rhetorical devices.

Task 9 – narrative structure
Vladimir Propp analyzed folk tales and identified that most contain 31 plot elements and 8 character types, even if there are many characters. He identified character types like the hero (Goldilocks), villains (the three bears initially though they did nothing wrong), and a prize or refuge (the bears' house for Goldilocks). Propp also identified character types like the donor, helper, false hero, and dispatcher. Todorov believed narratives follow a simple structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium, as seen in Goldilocks' story of finding the house. Levi-Strauss saw narratives as involving binary oppositions, like humans vs. animals in Goldilocks' confrontation with the bears

The document discusses English as a world language. It begins by noting that while English is widely spoken globally now, this is a relatively recent development as just a few million people spoke it during Shakespeare's time. It became a world language through being established as a mother tongue outside of England on all continents, beginning in North America in the 17th century. The growth of the US population, through immigration in the 19th-20th centuries, gave English its present standing. Around one in seven people worldwide belong to one of three groups that speak English.

Daarbij was in het begin nog sprake van een overzichtelijke rol tussen de media, het publiek en de woordvoerder. Nu is het medialandschap een stuk complexer geworden. Daarbij hebben de sociale media een prominente plaats ingenomen. Dankzij deze sociale media zijn we door de jaren heen gegroeid van ‘regie over de communicatie’ naar het ‘coachen van onze medewerkers’ als het gaat om het gebruik van sociale media. Het credo daarbij is: ‘Just do it!’. Geen grote beleidsplannen of protocollen, maar de verantwoordelijkheid over het gebruik van sociale media in de lijn beleggen… ”

Literature Basics
This document seeks to define literature and debunk common myths about it. It notes that literature includes fiction, poetry, and drama and uses literary devices to add layers of meaning beyond just conveying facts. Contrary to myths, literature can be fun to read, make its point clearly, and have relevance today. It is created by people from all walks of life, not just "stuck-up nerds," and interpreting its meaning does not require superior intelligence.
Figures of speech
This document defines and provides examples of various figures of speech. It discusses alliteration, anaphora, epiphora/epistrophe, metaphors, similes, antithesis, apostrophe, chiasmus, paradox, euphemisms, hyperbole, irony, metonymy, onomatopoeia, oxymoron, personification, and synecdoche. Each term is defined and an example is given to illustrate how that figure of speech is used.
Figures of speech
Figures of speech are rhetorical devices that use words in distinctive ways to achieve special effects. Some common figures of speech are metaphor, simile, personification, and irony. A metaphor is a direct comparison of two unlike things without using "like" or "as". A simile directly compares two things using "like" or "as". Personification gives human qualities to objects or ideas. Irony is when the literal meaning contrasts with the intended meaning. Figures of speech help make writing and conversation more interesting and impactful.

Types of parallelism
This document discusses types of parallelism in linguistics. It begins with definitions and examples of parallelism. The main types discussed are phonological, morphological, syntactic, and semantic/lexical parallelism.

Rhetorical Devices Project
- 1. B Y : C A I T L Y N M A H E R Literary and Rhetorical Devices Project
- 2. Apostrophe A figure of speech that directly addresses an absent or imaginary person or a personified abstraction, such as liberty or love. “YOU don't know about me without you have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter.” This is an apostrophe because the author is talking to an imaginary person. The author doesn’t say anyone specific about who he is talking to except for the use of the word YOU.
- 3. How to remember Remember it like an imaginary friend. It’s like the author is talking to someone that doesn’t exist.
- 4. Metonymy Greek meaning “substitute name,” metonymy is when the name of one object is substituted for that of another closely associated with it. “…and a little later I participated in that delayed Teutonic migration known as the Great War”(3). Gatsby substitutes “the Great War” by saying it was the “delayed Teutonic migration
- 5. How to Remember List frequently used metonymies: Examples: “I will give you my word” “The pen is mightier than the sword” “The White House decided” rather than “The President decided”
- 6. Conceit Conceit is a figure of speech in which two vastly different objects are likened together with the help of similes or metaphors. The comparison between hair and vines have nothing to do with each other until you describe what his hair looked like and compared them. He was most fifty, and he looked it. His hair was long and tangled and greasy, and hung down, and you could see his eyes shining through like he was behind vines. From The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain.
- 7. How to remember Think of conceits that you would remember. Compare two things that have nothing to do with each other and see how they are similar. Share with the class. • Ex. Life is like a box of chocolates. • Ex. High school is like a spork. It’s a crappy spoon and a crappy fork, and in the end its useless.
