What are rhetorical devices?

What rhetorical devices are used in this passage?

  • Im in the middle of writing my paper and I really want to use this passage from the book (Jarhead) that we're are analyzing, but I can't seem to figure out the rhetorical device used in this. Is it an analogy? If it is, are there any other devices used besides an analogy? "I was a boy falling in love with manhood. I understood that manhood had to do with war, and war with manhood, and to no longer be just a son, I needed someday to fight" (Anthony Swofford 128).

  • Answer:

    I would say it is most closely linked to the use of personification anthropomorphism. Look it up.
