POETRY - Poetic Devices

EQ: What is figurative language?
  • Definition - Figurative language is language that uses words or expressions with a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. When a writer uses literal language, he or she is simply stating the facts as they are. ... Figurative language is very common in poetry.
  • The Quizlet below lists the poetic devices, as well as the poetic forms we will be learning in our poetry unit. 
Here is the quizlet list.
