That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everyw

here. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm!

And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?
Sojourner Truth, "Ain't I A Woman?"

The literary device that appears repeatedly in this passage is C. Rhetorical question.

A rhetorical question is a literary device used to cause an effect on the reader or put emphasis on a particular point that is being discussed. Even if the answer is obvious, it is a device that an author uses to persuade the reader. In this passage, the question <em>“And ain’t I a woman?</em>” is used to prove that the character opposes to the stereotyped image of women as she portrays herself as a strong woman who have suffered many hardships.

Which literary device is used in this sentence from James Joyce’s “Araby”?
Elis [28]

simile

A simile is a comparison between two unlike things using like or as. There are actually two similes in this line. The first is the comparison of the speaker's body to a harp. The second comparison is the woman's words to a harpist's fingers.

A metaphor is a comparison between two unlike things without using like or as. Personification is giving a non-human thing human-like traits. A motif is a dominant idea in a work of literature.
