Literary Terms • Absolute • A word free from limitations or qualifications • “best,” “all,” “unique,” “perfect” • Anaphora • The repetition of words or phrases at the beginning of consecutive lines or sentences • "That my heart has been troubled, that Ihave not sought this nomination, that I could not seek it in good conscience, that I would not seek it in honest self-appraisal, is not to say that I value it the less. Rather, it is that I revere the office of the Presidency of the United States."

  3. Aphorism • A concise statement that expresses succinctly a general truth or idea, often using rhyme or balance • The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. • Apostrophe • A figure of speech in which one directly addresses an absent or imaginary person, or some abstraction • •O books who alone are liberal and free, who give to all who ask of you and enfranchise all who serve you faithfully! -- Richard de Bury • Asyndeton • A construction in which elements are presented in a series without conjunctions • On his return he received medals, honors, treasures, titles, fame.
