Alliteration, Consonance, and Assonance

Alliteration Repetition of the same consonant sounds, usually at the beginning of the words Example: - Should the glee-glaze- - In Death’s–stiff-stare.

Alliteration Find the alliteration in “Sweetness, Always” “Verses of pastry which melt into milk and sugar in the mouth.”

Alliteration Yay, you found the alliteration! …Hopefully “Verses of pastry which melt into milk and sugar in the mouth.”

Assonance The repetition of similar vowel sounds within syllables Example: Beware of ex/cessive assonance. Any assonance that draws attention to itself is ex/cessive.

Assonance Find the Assonance in this quote from “The Flea” “Oh stay, three lives in one flea spare, Where we almost, nay more than married are.”

Assonance Yay, you found it! …. Hopefully. “Oh stay, three lives in one flea spare, Where we almost, nay more than married are.” No matter where the similar sounds are found, as long as they are a repetition of the same vowel sound, they count!

Assonance Vs. Rhyme Scheme What is the difference between Assonance and Rhyme Scheme? Although Rhyme Scheme is also the same sounds, in rhyming those sounds are usually found at the end of the lines of the poem. Assonance can be found all throughout a poem, no matter where in the line.

Consonance Close repetition of the same consonant sounds, preceded by different vowel sounds Note: At the end of lines of poetry, this produces half-rhyme. Example: Flash and flesh. Breed and bread.

Consonance Find the Consonance in Our Homemade Limerick. “Sometimes, I wish I could wash, My reds with my whites, Josh. In a flash they’d be done, If I washed them as one, But a pink they would be make as they swish swash, swish swash.

Consonance Red – Consonance “Sometimes, I wish I could wash, My reds with my whites, Josh. In a flash they’d be done, If I washed them as one, But a pink they would be make as they swish swash, swish swash. Red – Consonance

Why are these important? Alliteration, Assonance, and Consonance are all useful in literature because they create a general flow. They all add a sense of lyricism to a poem, or a song. Also, used in tongue twisters. Example: Sally sells sea shells by the sea shore.

A simile is a comparison of two unlike things using the words like or as. A metaphor is a comparison of two unlike things without the use of signal words such as like or as. An idiom is a phrase that has a special meaning different from the actual meaning of the words.

Synesthesia : DEFINITION- A rhetorical trope concerning the shifts of imagery. Synesthesia takes one type of sensory contribution and commingles with another different sense in an impractical way. The use of synesthesia allows us to describe how a smell looks, or how a color sounds.

Examples When we say a musician hits a "blue note" while playing a sad song, we engage in synesthesia. When we talk about a certain shade of color as a "cool green," we mix tactile or thermal imagery with visual imagery the same way. When we talk about a "heavy silence," we also use synesthesia. 1/15/2019

Theme: DEFINITION-A distinct, recurring or unifying idea. Sometimes the theme can be very elusive. Themes are the fundamental and often universal ideas discovered in any literary work.
