Tropes and Schemes EPISODE II The Tropire Schemes Back

TROPES

Synecdoche Represents a whole by naming one of its parts or elements –I’ve got a great new set of wheels. –It’s all about the Benjamins, baby. Or, represents a “species” by naming its “genus.” –You will feel the sting of my steel. Swords are made of steel. –Grab some pine, rookie. The bench is made of pine. –Hooray for the red, white, and blue! Connect-oche ! “sin-ECK-duh-key”

Metonymy Represents a noun by naming another, inextricably related noun. –“Robin Hood is a traitor to the crown!” Really a traitor to the king, but the crown is related, reminiscent, and representative of him. –The White House gave no comment. –The suits have no clue how to run the team. Suits are related to the executives who wear them, and also help make an implicit argument: –They’re defined by their suits, which set them apart from those who might know how to run the team better (players, managers, fans, etc.) –Much ink has been spilled over the unprecedented success of The Avengers. The spilling of ink is related to writing, which is what really happened in response to The Avengers—a lot of writing about the film’s success.
