lowest point. Earlier portions of the story appear later as flashbacks. 4. Catalogs and geneaologies are given. These long lists of objects, places, and people place the finite action of the epic within a broader, universal context. Oftentimes, the poet is also paying homage to the ancestors of audience members. 5. Main characters give extended formal speeches. 6. Use of the epic simile. A standard simile is a comparison using "like" or "as." An epic or Homeric simile is a more involved, ornate comparison, extended in great detail. 7. Heavy use of repetition and stock phrases. The poet repeats passages that consist of several lines in various sections of the epic and uses homeric epithets, short, recurrent phrases used to describe people, places, or things. Both made the poem easier to memorize.

genuine novelist. Ezra Pound, an American poet and critic, believes that one hears far too much about Dante's Hell, and far too little about the Purgatorio, and Paradiso. Pound wrote an essay called "Dante" in his book, The Spirit of Romance written in 1952. He explains how Hell is the state of man who has lost the good of his intelligence, a state of man dominated by his passions. (129) Pound believes that Dante's Inferno should be approached with a "sense of irony." His use of simile is carried throughout the Inferno and enhances the effect and meaning of his experience in Hell. While it is natural for man to think of Hell as a place, Pound understands it as a condition of man's mental state in life, continued after death. The tendency to see objects and qualities only in one dimension limiting and drawing the reader away from the true meaning of Dante's journey. Pound sees the Inferno as a satire on man's aimless turmoil and restlessness

plain one (the fair sex--women) In original periphrasis, the writer expresses his subjective attitude in a new unexpected way (since the day I didn't have any front teeth yet) A periphrasis was an important feature of the Bible and Latin poetry to create elevated style. Simile--a figure of speech that draws comparison between 2 different things in 1 or more aspects. If two similar things are compared, it is not a simile (The moon is like a woman rising from a tomb). Similes have following elements: · like, as, as if (traditional) · negative forms (you are not so unkind as man's ingratitude) · degrees of comparison (he has no more idea of money than a cow) · an adverbial phrase containing prepositional phrase, answering question how (with the quickness of a cat she climbed up) · Certain verbs that imply comparison (he reminded me of a lonely cat, he
sequenced version that autumn. The US version featured a slightly different track listing, adding the aforementioned Bowie version of "Without You I'm Nothing" and the band's cover of Depeche Mode's "I Feel You". The recording spawned additional UK hits such as "Taste in Men" and "Slave to the Wage".[ Placebo encountered resistance from the British music industry upon release of the single "Special K" due to its reference of a ketamine high as a simile for love. The song was released in Australia as a single before eventually being made available in the UK as an EP featuring the B-sides and remixes that would have filled out a conventional two-disc single release. At the time the band claimed this was due to dissatisfaction with the two-disc single format, a claim somewhat undermined by their subsequent single releases all being made available in two-CD formats accompanied by a 7" vinyl.
name objects). Traditional periphrasis are not specific (e.g. "one's better half" = wife). In original periphrasis the author expresses his ideas in a new unexpected way. Periphrasis was an important part of the Bible, also of Latin poetry (16 th century) to create elevated style. The excessive use of periphrasis should not be favoured. 2. Simile (Lat. "like") is a figure of speech that draws comparison between 2 different things (e.g. "strange the moon seems: like a woman rising from a tomb." pale and quiet). When objects belonging to the same class are compared then we have comparison, not simile. Similes appear in the following forms (apart from "like / as / as if"): - in negative forms (e.g. "You are not so unkind as man's ingratitude.") - degrees of comparison (e.g

1. OBJECT-ORIENTED PARADIGM The Model •The model defines an abstract view to the problem. This implies that the model focuses only on problem related stuff and that you try to define properties of the problem. These properties include: 1 •the data which are affected and 2 •the operations which are identified by the problem.
