Master and understand the technical vocabulary of literature study. Is pow! a good example of onomatopoeia? Is paronomasia the same thing as a pun, and what is the figure of speech that uses a term like wind-hover for a soaring bird? What is an enjambed line, and what effect does it have on a poem? If seam and team rhyme, do seam and seem rhyme? Was Shakespeare a dramatist of the Elizabethan or of the Jacobean period? Pharos glossary of literary terms describes and illustrates the technical vocabulary associated with the study and discussion of literature. It covers: Aspects and elements of style, genre and figurative language; and terminology that relates to periods and movements in literary history. It includes: Ample examples from both literary and colloquial sources; a quick reference guide; and a complete index with references and cross-references to the main section and the illustrative examples.
