What effect does rhyme have in “The Raven”?

English
2 answers:
jeka57 [31]3 years ago

Proceeding from the assumption that repeating something enhances both the effect and the importance of the statement, the repetition of "nevermore" reiterates the grief, despair and fatalistic hopelessness of the speaker in the poem.

I am from a school of literary criticism that doesn't concern itself much with the "intended effect" of an author. However, the mournful refrain of nevermore seems to serve both literary purposes (it is a device in the rhyme scheme) within the structure of the poem, as well as reiterate the central themes of the poem: alienation, grief, despair, hopelessness and ultimately, death.

Which literary device enables readers to have multiple interpretations of a word, phrase, or event?
Flauer [41]

The answer to your question would be that the literary device that enables readers to have mulitiple interpreations of a word, phrase, or event is the following one: ambiguity. That is, the correct option would be C.

Ambiguity, also known as fallacy of ambiguity, is a word, phrase, or statement which contains more than meaning. These words or statements lead to confusion. For instance, "Yesterday I rode a horse with sunglasses" is ambigous because it can be taken as if the one with the sunglasses was the horse.

Please help me.

Well, to give you some inspiration for what to write I can give you reasons I would think you’d want to continue going 2-3 days.
The reasons why 2-3 days is better is because it is more efficient. It alleviates the stress of a 5 day school week, with loads of homework. With 2-3 days you can take more time to narrow your focus, learn and absorb the information taught and you’re able to get your homework done without as much stress, because you have more time to do so. Hope this helps!
