  1. COLLECTION 2 PROJECT By: Jimmy Sanders

  2. METER • Definition- A pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in poetry

  3. USE OF A METER • In the poem “The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls” by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow the third line reads: “Along the sea-sands damp and brown”

  4. Definition- Imaginative comparisons of things that are basically unalike or a word or phrase that describes one thing in terms of another, very different thing. Some forms of figures of speech include simile, metaphor, personification, & symbol FIGURES OF SPEECH

  5. In Ralph Waldo Emerson’s essay Self Reliance Emerson compares society to a business in which the shareholders are held personally liable. “Society is a joint-stock company” In the Meat Loaf song: “Life Is A Lemon And I Want My Money Back” Life is compared to a car. Another figure of speech is the song: “Peace Sells But Who’s Buying” By Megadeth USE OF FIGURES OF SPEECH

  6. METAPHOR • Definition- a figure of speech that makes an imaginative comparison between two unalike things

  7. USE OF A METAPHOR In stanza 3 of the poem The Chambered Nautilus Oliver Wendell Holmes uses a metaphor comparing the nautilus to a person who changes homes. “Still as the spiral grew, He left the past year’s dwelling for the new, Stole with his soft step its shining archway through, Built up its idle door, Stretched in his last-found home, & new the old no more”

  8. SYMBOLISM • Definition- the use of something that has meaning in itself but also stands for something more than itself or the use of a concrete object, a person, a place, or an action that works on at least two levels: its functions as itself, and it also suggests a deeper meaning.

  9. USE OF SYMBOLISM • As the title of the story suggests Nathaniel Hawthorne’s main symbol in the story The Minister’s Black Veil is a “horrible black veil” or a “dismal shade” that separates its wearer from the rest of the world. • Also in the Black Sabbath song “War Pigs” is actually meaning the government. “NO MORE WAR PIGS HAVE THE POWER”

  10. Sound Effects in Poetry • Includes the use of rhythm, rhyme, meter, alliteration, onomatopoeia, assonance, & consonance.

  11. USE OF SOUND EFFECTS IN POETRY • In Edgar Allan Poe’s story “The Raven” he writes in a sort of rhyming fashion. “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,…”

  12. The Authors Beliefs • In my opinion Edgar Allan Poe’s believes in mortality. I think this because in his stories he talks about life and death.

  13. Works Cited • Holt Elements of literature fifth course • Meat Loaf “Bat Out Of Hell 2: Back Into Hell • Black Sabbath “Paranoid” • Edgar Allan Poe “The Raven”
