Trope or Scheme? For each of the sentences below, write down the sentence and whether you think the rhetorical element used is a trope (diction) or a scheme (syntax). 1. “He stiffened his drink and his spine.” 2. “I came, I saw, I conquered.” 3. "We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the street, we shall fight in the hills."

1. “He stiffened his drink and his spine.” Trope or Scheme? 1. “He stiffened his drink and his spine.” TROPE! This is called a ZEUGMA, a trope in which one word governs or acts upon several words, phrases, or clauses, each in a different sense.

2. “I came, I saw, I conquered.” Trope or Scheme? 2. “I came, I saw, I conquered.” SCHEME! This is the use of ASYNDETON, the deliberate omission of conjunctions in a series.

Trope or Scheme? 3. "We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the street, we shall fight in the hills." SCHEME! This is an example of ANAPHORA, the repetition of the same word or group of words in successive phrases, clauses, or sentences.
