  1. 10/29-11/2

  2. Bell Work 10/29 Fear can be a reasonable response to immediate danger, like the instant alarm you would feel upon seeing a car race toward you. But some of the things we find most terrifying don’t present any real threat. A strange noise in the night, a creepy phone call, a creaking door slowly opening- what makes us afraid of things that can’t really hurt us?

  3. Agenda 10/29 • Bell Work/Discussion • Read/listen to “The Fall of the House of the Usher” page 412-431 with video animation • In-class work page 432 questions 1-3, 5, 7 • Work due at the end of the hour! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pic4PS8o41M

  8. Bell Work 11/1 What types of masks do you wear in your everyday life? For example, do you act differently in front of your parents than you do in front of your friends? Teachers? Why do you act a certain way around some people, but different around others?

  10. Bell Work 11/2 Define the parts of figurative language you know… • Onomatopoeia • Repetition • Epithet • Antithesis • Hyperbole • Parallel Structure • Simile • Alliteration • Imagery • Personification • Allusion • Assonance • Consonance

  11. Figurative Language Assonance: is the figurative term used to refer to the repetition of a vowel sound in a line of text or poetry. • Examples: • "Hear the mellow wedding bells" by Edgar Allan Poe • "Strips of tinfoil winking like people" - "The Bee Meeting" by Sylvia Plath

  12. Figurative Language Consonance: is a stylistic literary device identified by the repetition of identical or similar consonants in neighbouring words whose vowel sounds are different. Example: Here, Emily Dickinson has relied on the consonant “n” to create the intended effect. • “A Quietness distilled • As Twilight long begun, • Or Nature spending with herself • Sequestered Afternoon—

  13. Parallel Structure is the repetition of a chosen grammatical form within a sentence. By making each compared item or idea in your sentence follow the same grammatical pattern, you create a parallel construction. • Correct: Every morning, we make our bed, eat breakfast and feed the dog. • Incorrect: Every morning, we make our bed, eating breakfast and feed the dog. • Correct: I will not sing a song, nor will I dance. • Incorrect: I will not sing a song, nor dance.

  14. Antithesis The definition of antithesis is "a contrary or opposite opinion, concept, or characteristic." So, the sun may be the antithesis to the moon, the devil may be the antithesis to God, and a conservative may be the antithesis to a liberal. In a less obvious sense, however, the concept of antithesis is widely used in literature and film. In fact, it's a rhetorical device used to paint a picture without obviously stating that one character is against the other.

  15. Antithesis Example InA Tale of Two Cities byCharles Dickens, we read the line: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." Here, Dickens epitomized the very idea of antithesis. How can anything be both good and bad? In truth, life is always a simultaneous balance of the two.

  16. Epithet is the literary term for the application of a word or phrase to someone that describes that person's attributes or qualities. Often, this word or phrase, used to describe the person, becomes synonymous with the person and can be used as part of his/her name or in place of his/her name.

  17. Epithet Example “A pair of star-cross’d lovers take their life;” (Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare) Theprologue to William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet contains an interesting example of epithet. He refers to the doomed pair as “star-cross’d lovers.” “Star-cross’d” constitutes a descriptive term that Shakespeare coined solely for their love. Indeed, the adjective phrase has become so famous that this epithet has been used many times since for other doomed couples.

  18. Question Trail Activity 11/2 • Teams of 2-3 (12 groups total) • The goal is to answer all questions correctly. Your answers determine which question you go to next on the trail. If you choose the wrong answer to a question you may go back to the same question. You may have to retrace your steps. THE QUESTIONS DO NOT MOVE CHRONOLOGICALLY! • Record your answers with the corresponding question number on your literary devices question trail half sheet.
