Hi! :)

Aside from using an English old style, Jack London, the author of the story of Keesh used a figurative speech. One of the lines in the story is “The anger boiled a white heat.”

The author used personification and metaphor in the story to describe or identify something that is related to or the same as some unrelated things.

Answer:

Hi! The figures of speech used in <em>The Story of Keesh</em>, by Jack London, are <em>repetition and metaphor.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

First, let's remember that a figure of speech is used by the authors to give the words or sentences a non-literal sense in order to create a rhetorical or vivid effect in the reader. Some of these figures of speech are repetition and metaphors.

In this particular case, <em>the author uses repetition and metaphors to give the reader a more vivid sense when approaching the theme of the story: sacrifice.  </em>So, his purpose in using those techniques is to <u>make the reader really live through his words, to make him/her feel the situations described as if it was  his/her own experience.</u>

andriy [413]
A personal and emotional struggle that takes place in the mind of a character is called an internal conflict. Internal conflicts can be based on debates of morality, individual’s values, one’s opinion of another person, or one’s belief system. These conflicts lead to mental debate inside the character, only affecting themselves.

The connotations of a word have little effect on its literal meaning. true or false?
lbvjy [14]
It is false that the connotations of a word have little effect on its literal meaning. Connotation are your personal feelings that a certain word evokes when you think about it/read it/write it. 
For example, the word home means a house, but its connotation is usually positive - you connect it with love, warmth, etc.
