Exploring Figurative Language in Literary Craft

Dive into the world of literary terms by exploring author's craft through figurative language like simile, metaphor, imagery, and personification. Learn how similes compare unlike things with "like" or "as" while metaphors equate one entity to another, going beyond simple comparisons. Imagery and personification further enhance writing by painting vivid pictures and attributing human characteristics to non-human entities.
