Faculty of Arts
Practical and theoretical instruction in text style as it is defined in both classical and modern rhetoric. Students will learn how to discern the voice of a writer or narrator by examining their diction and their use of figures, from the structurally oriented schemes that help with plain language (parallelism, parenthesis, apposition, etc.) to the meaning-oriented tropes (metaphor, metonymy, irony, etc.) that create language art.
