Answer:
- The words all share the theme of destruction.
Explanation:
Diction or the choice of words always plays a vital role in serving the author's purpose by conveying the specific intended meaning effectively to the readers.'
In 'The Fall of the House of Usher', <em>the use of the concept vocabulary puts up to the essence and feeling of 'finality' as proposed by the story's title as 'all the words share the common theme of destruction</em>.' This theme of knocking down is clearly reflected in the words 'fall of the house' of Usher which connotes 'desolation' or 'demolition.'
Answer:
The literary technique used in all three examples is <u>metaphor</u>.
Explanation:
<u>A metaphor is a figure of speech that makes an indirect comparison. </u>Unlike a simile -- a direct comparison --, which uses the support words "as" or "like", a metaphor does not use any support words. It simply states that thing A is thing B, instead of thing A is like thing B. For example:
- Your eyes are like stars. -- simile
- Your eyes are stars. -- metaphor
The purpose of a metaphor is to attribute the characteristics of one thing to another by comparing them, even if in reality they are not similar at all. When I say someone's eyes are stars, I don't mean it literally, of course. I refer to their beautiful brightness.
<u>That is precisely what Douglass does in all three examples in the question. Slavery does not literally have bitter dregs. It is not a dark night. The vessels were not ghosts. Douglass is making these indirect comparisons to attribute characteristics of one thing to the other. On dark nights, we can feel scared, lost, hopeless. By saying slavery is a dark night, Douglass may mean slavery made him feel that way.</u>
