(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsOrigins[edit]In medieval writing[edit]Types and examples[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Citations[edit]Sources[edit]Origins[edit]The term trope derives from the Greek \u03c4\u03c1\u03cc\u03c0\u03bf\u03c2 (tropos), “turn, direction, way”, derived from the verb \u03c4\u03c1\u03ad\u03c0\u03b5\u03b9\u03bd (trepein), “to turn, to direct, to alter, to change”.[5] Tropes and their classification were an important field in classical rhetoric. The study of tropes has been taken up again in modern criticism, especially in deconstruction.[7] Tropological criticism (not to be confused with tropological reading, a type of biblical exegesis) is the historical study of tropes, which aims to “define the dominant tropes of an epoch” and to “find those tropes in literary and non-literary texts”, an interdisciplinary investigation of which Michel Foucault was an “important exemplar”.[7]In medieval writing[edit]A specialized use is the medieval amplification of texts from the liturgy, such as in the Kyrie Eleison (Kyrie, \/ magnae Deus potentia, \/ liberator hominis, \/ transgressoris mandati, \/ eleison). The most important example of such a trope is the Quem quaeritis?, an amplification before the Introit of the Easter Sunday service and the source for liturgical drama.[4][8] This particular practice came to an end with the Tridentine Mass, the unification of the liturgy in 1570 promulgated by Pope Pius V.[7]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Types and examples[edit]Rhetoricians have analyzed a variety of “twists and turns” used in poetry and literature and have provided a list of labels for these poetic devices. These includeAnalogy – A comparison by showing how two seemingly different entities are alike, along with illustrating a larger point due to their commonalities.[9][10][11]Emphasis – The use of an expression or term in a narrower and more precise sense than usual to accentuate a certain sense.[12][13][14]Hyperbole \u2013 The use of exaggeration to create a strong impression.Irony \u2013 Creating a trope through implying the opposite of the standard meaning, such as describing a bad situation as “good times”.Litotes \u2013 A figure of speech and form of verbal irony in which understatement is used to emphasize a point by stating a negative to further affirm a positive, often incorporating double negatives for effect.Metaphor \u2013 An explanation of an object or idea through juxtaposition of disparate things with a similar characteristic, such as describing a courageous person as having a “heart of a lion”.* Allegory \u2013 A sustained metaphor continued through whole sentences or even through a whole discourse. For example, “The ship of state has sailed through rougher storms than the tempest of these lobbyists.”Metonymy \u2013 A trope through proximity or correspondence. For example, referring to actions of the U.S. President as “actions of the White House”.Antonomasia – A kind of metonymy in which an epithet or phrase takes the place of a proper name.Synecdoche \u2013 A literary device, related to metonymy and metaphor, which creates a play on words by referring to something with a related concept. For example, referring to the whole with the name of a part, such as “hired hands” for workers; a part with the name of the whole, such as “the law” for police officers; the general with the specific, such as “bread” for food; the specific with the general, such as “cat” for a lion; or an object with its substance, such as “bricks and mortar” for a building.Oxymoron  \u2013 The use of two opposite situations or things in one sentence to prove a point.[2]Pun or paronomasia – A form of word play that exploits multiple meanings of a term, or of similar-sounding words.Antanaclasis \u2013 The stylistic trope of repeating a single word, but with a different meaning each time; antanaclasis is a common type of pun, and like other kinds of pun, it is often found in slogans.Catachresis \u2013 A metaphor that is or can be a stretch for an audience to catch on to. Catachreses can be subjective; some people may find a metaphor to be too much while others may find it perfectly reasonable.[2]For a longer list, see Figure of speech: Tropes.Kenneth Burke has called metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche and irony the “four master tropes”[15] owing to their frequency in everyday discourse.These tropes can be used to represent common recurring themes throughout creative works, and in a modern setting relationships and character interactions. It can also be used to denote examples of common repeating figures of speech and situations.[16]Whilst most of the various forms of phrasing described above are in common usage, most of the terms themselves are not, in particular antanaclasis, litotes, metonymy, synecdoche and catachresis.[citation needed]See also[edit]Look up trope in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.References[edit]Citations[edit]^ Miller (1990).
