Answer:

Assonance

Explanation:

Assonance is the similarity or resemblance of words or sounds. It is the repetition of vowel sounds in nearby words and can affect the rhythm, tone, or mood of the any sound or text.

Repeating some certain vowel sounds can also create a melancholy mood

Here in this case, the sounds are similar both the times when ball hits the bat or it hits the mitt. Therefore, we can say that this is an example of assonance.

"It's about the ball, the bat, and the mitt./ Ball hits bat, or it hits mitt." This is an example of consonance. It is a sound device related to repetitive sounds produced by consonants within a sentence/phrase (refers to the repetition of ending sounds that are consonants). Often used to create a rhyme/cadence. It also uses repeated sounds in the middle of a word. Consonance occurs so long as identical consonant sounds are close together. It is a figure of speech.

Which sentences in this excerpt from John Barth's "Lost in the Funhouse" show the postmodern element of self-reflexivity?

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The sentences in this excerpt from John Barth's "Lost in the Funhouse" that show the postmodern element of self-reflexivity are 3) Initials, blanks, or both were often substituted for proper names in nineteenth century fiction to enhance the illusion of reality and 4) Interestingly, as with other aspects of realism, it is an illusion that is being enhanced, by purely artificial means.

Explanation: Self-reflexivity is a recurring element in postmodern literature. Self-reflexivity consists in including passages or statements which aim to reflect about the language itself and the process of writing. In that way, it functions as a literary device and it focuses on dealing with the manners of composition. In sentence 3, the author makes reference to literary strategies of the nineteenth century and, in sentence 4, he alludes to the writing process of realist writers.
