Anaphora Worksheet
Anaphora – the repetition of a word or expression at the beginning of clauses, sentences, successive phrases or verses especially for rhetorical or poetic effect.
Example – “What we need in the United States is not division. What we need in the United States is not hatred. What we need in the United States is not violence and lawlessness” –Robert F. Kennedy
Anaphora creates rhythm. http://www.faqs.org/photo-dict/photofiles/list/2293/2999bongo_drums.jpg (Drums)
Epistrophe Worksheet
Epistrophe – the repetition of a word or expression at the end of successive sentences, clauses, or phrases.
Example – “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny compared to what lies within us.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson (also anaphora)
REMEMBER! Epistrophe has an “E” so it is at the end of the clause.
