Which part of this excerpt from To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is an example of metaphor?

1 answer:

3 0

The line that states, "courage is a man with a gun in his hand." It is a metaphor because Lee is not comparing courage to a man with a gun with "like" or "as." Instead, she uses "is", as if she is enforcing the fact that courage IS a man with a gun. That kind of bluntness is only in a metaphor, as the author gives no room for debate.
