Literary Devices

     Today in class we discussed three literary devices. The first literary device we discussed were litotes. Litotes are ironic understatements expressed in a negative opposite way. The second literary device we learned about was hypophora. Hypophora is a figure of speech in which the writer asks a question and then answers it.The third literary device we learned about today was antithesis. Antithesis is a person or things that is being contrasted.Antithesis talks about opposite things.
