Letter to Sir John A. MacDonald Stereotypes, Irony, and Tone

Stereotypes Define stereotypes

Stereotypes Noun: A widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or idea of a particular type of person or thing: "sexual and racial stereotypes". Verb: View or represent as a stereotype: "the film is weakened by its stereotyped characters".

Irony Define irony

Irony Noun: The expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

Tone Tone (literature), a literary technique which encompasses the attitudes toward the subject and toward the audience implied in a literary work

Voice Writer's voice is the literary term used to describe the individual writing style of an author. Voice was generally considered to be a combination of a writer's use of syntax, diction, punctuation, character development, dialogue, etc., within a given body of text (or across several works). Voice can be thought of in terms of the uniqueness of a vocal voice machine. As a trumpet has a different voice than a tuba or a violin has a different voice than a cello, so the words of one author have a different sound than the words of another. One author may have a voice that is light and fast paced while another may have a dark voice
