Metonymy is a literary device that uses a <u>specific word</u> (especially a noun) in exchange of a term that represents an <u>idea or an objec</u>t. Metonymy is an example of the use of <u>figurative language</u>, which can enrich the meaning and literary style of a work.  

An example of <u>metonymy</u> would be:  

I have devoted my <em>soul</em> to you. The word <u><em>soul</em></u>, not only representing the original concept but the act of fully committing to someone.

What was various medevil literary forms
Alik [6]

This was all i could do. An example can be alliteration or the slavic antithesis or similar. Very often these pieces of writing were poems such as epic poems that would be sung to the people who were most often illiterate. Writers and poets would have to sing the entire epics to listeners which is why these devices are used. They make it easier to remember because they act as formulas that the poet can follow like a pattern and by repeating them all the time and changing some events and names he could remember more or if he forgets they would give him time to make something up and make up for the losses
