Answer:
The figurative language used in the stanza is: alliteration.
Explanation:
Alliteration is a literary device that repeats consonant sounds at the beginning of words that are close to each other in a structure. A simple example would be a well-known tongue twister: She sells seashells by the seashore (the /s/ sound is repeated).
In the stanza we are analyzing here, alliteration takes place when the author repeats the sound represented by the letter "h":
<em>In the silence </em><em>h</em><em>e </em><em>h</em><em>as </em><em>h</em><em>eard</em>
We have three words in a row beginning with the same consonant sound. Thus, we have an alliteration.
The stanza is an excerpt from the poem "The D.um.b Soldier," by Robert Louis Stevenson.
Answer:
I would agree that in the modern age of social media we create an "unreliable narrator" for our lives. While in most literature, unreliable narrators do not actually understand what is happening or do not have the mental capacity to tell the story correctly, many people on social media do. Still, on social media people can be anyone they want, and everyone has insecurities. So, those on social media use it as an excuse to lie about themselves and their lives. Even though many will believe this is harmless, it is still untrue and provides incorrect information about their lives. Therefore, it must be said that people become their own unreliable narrator on social media.
