New blog group

Ariel

Suinn

Evan

Michael



The reason why we decided to modify this blog is because we added two new members to our poetry group. Our group does not like poetry. We feel indifferent about studying poetry. We have learned a lot about poetry so far. We have learned what a metaphor is and how to analyze one. We also learned the different parts of a metaphor such as a vehicle, a tenor, and the grounds of a metaphor. We hope to learn how to further understand poetry, and someday wish to write it ourselves.



Unique and original examples of devices



Apostrophe- O! He's in a happier place

Irony- Mark: It's not going to rain, mom.

Mother- ok

Mark goes outside and half-way through his journey, it starts to pour.

Metonymy- The suits on Wallstreet

Paradox-Theoretical physicists look for paradoxes in the universe.

Personification- The fish looked like he had the honor of a soldier

Synecdoche-Wings for bird

Tautology- The room was dark and there was no light in the room.

Understatement-The eruption of Mount Vesuvius was small.

Anthropomorphism-
