Alliteration=sylistic device consisting of repeating the same or similar sounds

in close succesion,especiallu at the beggining of successing words,it gives a me


lodic effect to the place where it appeares.
-does not carry any lexical meaning,unless sounds have meaning,in th
e repetition of sound,carries traces of meaning
-certain sounds if repeated,can reduce the effect of simulance
-it's a kind of music accompagnement of the author's idea,vage emoti
onal atmosphere,which each reader enterprets for himself
-has a very long history in English poetry(mostly oral carried over
by bards,recited in holes)
-started out as a nanotechnical
Ryhme=the repetition of identical of similar terminal sounds,most are placed at
equal distances from 1 another inversed they usually appear at the end of the co
rrisponding lines,identity and particularly similarity of sound combination may
be relative
-we distinguish between -full ryhme=presuposes the identity of a last stres
sed vowel and the following consonants(might,lights,spites)
-where there is identity of stressed syl
lables including the initial consonant of the second syllable in polisemantic wo
rds,we have exacts of identical sounds
-incomplete ryhme=present a greater variety,they fa
ll in 2 basic groups,vowel ryhmes and consonant ryhme
-vowel ryhmes=the vowels of the sy
llables in corrisponding words are identical,but the consonants may be different
(flesh)
-consonant ryhmes=show concordance
in the consonants and disparity in the vowels as in eg.tay toll
-at times,1 word
can ryhme with a combination of words or 2 or even 3 words,ryhme with a corrispo
nding2 or 3 words
-broken ryhme/compund ryhme=characteristic is that the combination is made
to sound like 1 single word
-sometimes it gives a colloquial sense
-may be contrasted with I ryhme
-according to the way,rymes are arranged in a st
anza,certain models have cristalized ryhmes;monoryhme(aaaa),couplets(aabbccdd),c
ross ryhmes (ababcdcd),framing or ring ryhmes(abba cbbc),sonnet-11 syllables
-internal ryhme=ryhming words are placed not at the end of the line,but wit
hin it
-before the caesura and at the end
-brakes the line in 2 distinct parts but it consolidates it
-can occur in everyday speech

Rhythm=it takes up many forms,it is a basically regular recurence of elements or


features,such as beat or accent
-is primarily a peridiocity of various types resulting from a deliberate a
rrangements of speech into regulary recurring units
-the influence upon semantic aspect is apparent in the fact that an orderl
y phonetic arrangement calls for orderly sintactic structures which suggest an o
rderly segmentic of the sense groups
-in the language,relies on opposwsition(short-lon,stressed-unstressed,high
-low) and other contrasting segments of speech
-the concepts should be distinguished from that of Meter=is any form of pe
riodicity in verse
-it's type being d
etermined by the character and number of syllables of which it consists
-is an ideal pheno
menon,characterized by its strict regularity,consistancy and invariability
-is a pattern
-is flexible and sometimes requieres an effort to perceive it
-in classical verse,it appeares in a nr of stresses in the line
-in prose,it appeares in the autumnation of similar sintactic patterns,whi
ch means that the parameter of meter in prose and in verse are entirely differen
t
-meter-in poetry falls into regularly repeated patterns called metrical fe
et
-in english poetry-metrical feet-bisyllabic-trochee
-iambus
-trisyllabic-amphibrach
-dactyle
-anapaest
- a verse can be a - dimetre(rare)-2 feet
-trimetre
-tetrametre
-pentametre
-hexametre
- in prose,ryhthm occurs in relatively short spans of text and constantly
changes it's pattern and may suddenly normal,almost unapparently lyrical design
or no ryhthm at all
-metrical rythm-property of verse,can appear in prose but it arritmical
-the mostobservable rythmical patterns in prose are based on the use of ce
rtain sintactical stylistic devices,enumeration,preposition,parallel constructio
ns and chiasmus or reversed parallel constructions
