Antithesis is probably my favorite. “When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.” - Attributed to Jimi Hendrix

Beautifully explained. I really appreciate your taking the time to look for the right examples. Plan to watch it a couple of more times.

Great video. My best was not mentioned though - Anaphora. That was what Martin Luther king used a couple of times in that great speech. Starting successive sentences with the same set of words for emphasis. "I have a dream ......"

It’s funny how easily we fail to recognize the devices that we deploy every day, yet they are still so integral to communication and connection. It’s a good thing you’re helping bring awareness to them!

My favorite rhetorical device is alliteration

There seems to be a lot of overlap between analogies, metaphors and similes. I'm not sure if it will help, but I like to differentiate between them by saying that similes and metaphors are used to describe, where as analogies are used to explain.

Hi, giorgi. It sounds like the #10, Anti-thesis @16:05. Anti-thesis has elements of parallel structure but uses that contrasting set up, _"Not A, but B."_

Thanks for the vıdeo but i am still confused on what are really rhetorical devices. I fınd somewhere devices like Ethos, Pathos etc. please Help!

@alexanderlyon

2 жыл бұрын

Ethos, pathos, and logos are rhetorical *_appeals_* . As mentioned in the video, rhetorical or literary *_devices_* are specific techniques used to enhance words so they are more interesting, engaging, and provide value to a message beyond the straightforward meaning of the words. The two areas we are discussing here are not typically discussed together, compared/contrasted, etc. They only thing they have in common is the word rhetoric.

Can anyone give me any book or any references about rethorical devices, please

Is it a mistake to understand the repetition of "I have a dream", a phrase as ANAPHORA instead of parallelism?

@alexanderlyon

2 жыл бұрын

A mistake? No. _Mistake_ is a strong word when discussing terms and real-life examples. There's so much room for overlap and interpretation. I can see how it might be fun to debate it but, in the end, I think it can be used as a fair example of both. I have a dream is very common example of Anaphora but its also an example of parallelism because the statements that follow each I have a dream lead-in are themselves very much crafted in parallel ways. But, the point of the video is not really about the labels themselves. I'm much more interested in speakers using these techniques to enhance our message.

I clicked on the website to download the PDF you’re talking about. Your website is quite confusing a lot of crap in there lots of crap all kinds of pictures and all kinds of things going on. If you were speaking like your website, nobody would understand what you’re talking about. So maybetake your communication skills and applied to your website my suggestion my opinion you don’t know me. It’s free. It’s worth what you paid. This was dictated that proofread because I’m not sure I want to spend my time. I like your podcasts. I’ve learned quite a bit from you but your website sucks.
