SOUND EFFECTS

ALLITERATION Consonant sounds repeated at the beginnings of words If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick? “And from there those that lifted eyes could count . . .” (“Out, Out-” by Robert Frost) Activity: Alliteration group game

(All share the long “a” sound.) ASSONANCE Repeated VOWEL sounds in a line or lines of poetry in NON-RHYMING WORDS. (Often creates near rhyme.) Lake Fate Base Fade (All share the long “a” sound.)

“Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep.” ASSONANCE cont. Examples of ASSONANCE: “A knight rides into the noon,/and only his eye is living . . .” (“The Knight” by Adrienne Rich) “Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep.” - William Shakespeare

FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE

SIMILE A comparison of two things using “like” or “as.” “She is as beautiful as a sunrise.” “My clouded reflection eyes me / like a bird of prey . . .” (“Facing It” by Yusef Komunyakaa)

METAPHOR A direct comparison of two unlike things “All the world [is] a stage, and we are merely players.”- William Shakespeare “…a thousand splintered suns / are the gaiety of his [chain] mail.” “The Knight” by Adrienne Rich

PERSONIFICATION An animal given human-like qualities, or an object or thing given life-like qualities. “ . . .One seal particularly / I had seen here evening after evening. / . . . He was interested in music . . . /Then he would disappear, then suddenly emerge / almost in the same spot, with a sort of shrug . . .” “At the Fishhouses,” Elizabeth Bishop

PERSONIFICATION Kanye West moved to Chicago when he was three years old. The following excerpt from his song “Homecoming” (2007) shows how West personifies the city, also known by the nickname “The Windy City.” I met this girl when I was three years old And what I love most, she had so much soul She said "Excuse me little homie, I know you don't know me But uh, my name is Windy” . . . And when I grew up, she taught me how to go downtown And in the nighttime, her face lit up, so astounding I told her, in my heart is where she'll always be She never mess with entertainers cuz they always leave She said it feels like they walk and go from me. . .

OTHER POETIC DEVICES

SYMBOLISM When a person, place, thing, or event that has meaning in itself also represents, or stands for, something else. = Innocence = America = Peace

Allusion “And by his side a girl who looked like Heidi / in my storybook waded in colored plastic.” from “Exile” by Julia Alvarez (Heidi is the Swiss heroine of a series of books from the late 1800’s, who was orphaned and had to move away to her grandfather’s.) Allusion comes from the verb “allude” which means “to refer to” An allusion is a reference to something famous: another literary work, an historical event, a person, place or thing, etc. If the reader doesn’t “get it,” meaning is lost.

Allusion Feelin’ like Katrina with no FEMA . . . “Flashing Lights” (2007) ..and you can live through anything if Magic made it . . . So if the Devil wear Prada and Adam Eve wear nada I’m in between, but way more fresher. “Can’t Tell Me Nothin’” (2007) What people, places, or events does Kanye West refer to in these lyrics? What does he mean by using these allusions?
