Well, similes is a comparison between two things using like or as, but in the other hand metaphors are a comparison between two things without using like or as

You can tell because a metaphor does "not " use like or as when making a comparison between two objects. On the other hand , a simile does uses the terms like or as when making a comparison . Example of simile : Her eyes were as blue as the clouds in the sky. That is a simile because you are comparing her eyes using like to the sky. On the other hand, a metaphor example is : all the world's a stage is a metaphor because you are not using like or as and is comparing the world to a stage . Hoped that helped !! :)

NEED NOW!!<br> How are Romantic and Gothic literature related?

kumpel [21]

Romantic and Gothic literature are related though out the story line. Early 18th century, when the genres both came out in England, romanticism was related to horror and was against the Enlightment Era and was leaning more towards Neoclassicism. The Gothic and Romantic scene were closest related through the deeply felt emotions.
