Reading Literature Read the text several times. Read with a pencil in your hand. Write about what you have read. Talk about it. Get down to the nitty-gritty. Compare it. Contrast it. Think about it in context.

Important Elements of Literature Imagery and Metaphor Diction (Connotation & Denotation) Form and Play

Imagery and Simile Image: Something You Experience With The Senses Simile: Comparison Using Like or As

Separation Your absence has gone through me Like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color. W. S. Merwin

Diction (Connotation & Denotation) Diction: the way words are used. Denotation: what a word means literally. Connotation: what a word suggests.

Let us honor... Let us honor if we can The vertical man Though we value none But the horizontal one.

Form and Play Form: the shape or design of a work. Play:

Metaphors I’m a riddle in nine syllables, An elephant, a ponderous house, A melon strolling on two tendrils O red fruit, ivory, fine timbers! This loaf’s big with it’s yeast rising.

What Literature Does Expresses the Inexpressible Changes our Perspective

You Fit Into Me You fit in to me like a hook into an eye: A fish hook, an open eye.
