  1. SenseDevices

  2. SenseDevices • Simile: a direct comparison and can be recognized by the use of the words as or like fair as a star, when only one is shining in the sky. Like a wind that falls at eve our fancies blow

  3. SenseDevices • Metaphor: rather like a simile except that the comparison is not direct but implied A violet by a mossy stone Half hidden from the eye. Your cheecks are tomatoes Thy sweetest can be enjoyed.

  4. SenseDevices • Personification: when inanimate objects are given a human form, or when they are made to speak. Many have loved me desperately, Many with smooth serenity, While some have shown contempt of me Till they dropped underground. …Patience who asks Wants war, wants wound; weary his …

  5. SenseDevices • Theme: the central idea. MEANING IDEA THEME (Experience) (communicated) • Tone: the writer’s or speaker’s attitude toward his subject, audience, or himself - the emotional coloring/meaning of the work - an extremely important part of the full meaning - is indicated by the inflections of the speaker’s voice

  6. Tone (examples) Ecstatic sinister sinful solemn Humorous mocking happy sad Resigned despair joyful light Horrible hopeful incredulous

  7. Consider the Tone • I am going to get married today • Hooray! I am going to get married today! • I can’t believe it! I’m going to get married today. • Might as well face it. I’m going to get married today. • Horrors! I’m going to get married today!

  8. Crossing the Bar (Tennyson) Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar When I put out to sea, But such a tide as moving seems asleep, to full for sound and foam, When that which drew from out the boundless deep turns again home. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell When I embark; For though from out our bourne of Time and Place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar
