Answer:

A figure of speech

Explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech that contains an implied comparison.

Metaphor compare two things usually not associated together. Their meaning is not literally and it's only implied, meaning the reader has to drawn their own conclusions regarding their meaning.

An example of a metaphor is ' I'm drawing in a sea of grief'. Literally, nobody is drawing anywhere, the metaphor is used here to emphasize the feeling of grief which is as huge as a sea.

Metaphors create strong imagines and leave lasting impressions with the readers.

A metaphor is a figure of speech that doesn't use like and as. It more or less the same as simile but simile uses like and as in order to show comparison to a certain thing.

The Transcendental Movement developed between which two wars?
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The Transcendental Movement developed between the War of 1812 and the Civil War.

Explanation:

Transcendentalism was an American philosophical, political and literary movement that flourished approximately between 1836 and 1860. It began as a reform movement within the Unitarian Church that sought to extend the application of William Ellery Channing's thought about the inner God and the significance of intuitive thought. For transcendentalists, the soul of each individual is identical to the soul of the world and contains what the world contains. The transcendentalists worked with the feeling that the advent of a new era was at hand. They were critical of their contemporary society for their thoughtless conformity, and urged that each individual seek, in Ralph Waldo Emerson's words, "an original relationship with the universe."
