Discuss how diction and figurative language impact an author’s tone and characterization.
rewona [7]
Diction and figurative language are both literary terms that are commonly used in writing to demonstrate the tone an author is using. Diction impacts the author's tone by the style of speaking the author chooses to use through the effectiveness of his words. An author may choose to write figuratively, literally, or poetically......Figurative language impacts authors tone and characterization by a writer choosing to write symbolically and dramatically instead of straight forward literal meaning. Characters can range from every day objects to nature.
