Juxtaposition ;)

Juxtaposition...

- Placing two variable,side by side & their contrast or similarity are shown through comparison.

- Turning something familiar to something less familiar or vice-versa.

- Conflict between right brain & left brain happen.

Where did I get all of this?In class concentration,people..haha.Nah!I just jot down what I think is important about the topic,that's all.

Juxtaposition involves metaphor & similes and logical analogy & affective analogy

Metaphor & Similes


Metaphor : A metaphor is a figure of speech concisely expressed by comparing two things, saying that one is the other.
Example : But my heart is a lonely hunter that hunts on a lonely hill.(William Sharp, "The Lonely Hunter")

Similes : A figure of speech in which two unlike things are explicitly compared.
Example : As cute as a button.

Logical Analogy & Affective Analogy


Logical Analogy : Use similarities in the design, structure or function of to connect back to the subject.
Example : A cheetah can be compared to a sports car as they are capable of traveling at high speeds.

Affective Analogy : Are the emotional resemblance.
Example : Adibah is like a kitten because she is cute.
