Imagery

No, this sentence is not a metaphor. It is a figurative expression that suggests the presence of a person based on a characteristic smell, without directly comparing the person to the smell. A metaphor would involve directly equating one thing with another in a non-literal way.

Sensory Language is the use of all five senses in a poem. taste, sound, vision, smell, touch.

Sensory language appeals to the senses. When a writer describes how something looks, sounds, feels, tastes, or smells in detail, it is sensory language.

Well, you could say "this woman is pure, lovely, and kind." ... although, paraphrasing kind of destroys the whole purpose of poetry. But whatever. We'll blame it on your teacher. Paraphrase huh?

Wikipedia says this about She Walks in Beauty:

Byron is said to have written the poem after meeting his cousin Lady Anne Wilmot Horton in black mourning clothes, which, when combined with her pale skin and "raven tresses" (black hair), reminded him of stars and the night. The poem claims this lovely outer appearance as a sign of her inner beauty and purity. This was a popular theme of Renaissance and Medieval poetry.

This poem is not necessarily a love poem, but more of a celebration of the subject's beauty. Some critics have said that Byron fell passionately in love with his cousin and wrote this poem for her. He met her for the first time while she was in mourning over the death of a loved one. Thus, in modest black dress (hence the allusions to darkness, with the light referring to her beauty) Lord Byron encountered his cousin, known for her great beauty, and was taken aback. Nowhere in the poem does the poet mention or allude to love; he is merely commenting on the subject's beauty.

In regular writing and speech, alliteration provides emphasis, and sometimes aids in memory because it is catchy and perhaps humorous. For instance, if you title your speech "The Menace of Money" rather than "Money is Bad," people will be more likely to remember it. In poetry, sometimes it adds to the spoken form of a poem as well (many poets consider the spoken form of a poem part of the art).

The wreck of the Hesperus is a narrative poem written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in 1842.

Infrared imagery is a type of photography or technology that captures wavelengths of light not visible to the human eye. It is used to detect heat signatures, show temperature variances, identify objects obscured by darkness or foliage, and provide valuable information in scientific, military, and industrial applications.

The poem is made up of an extended metaphor that symbolises her moving on from or breaking free from something.

Throughout the poem she uses words that have a large element of movement in them such as "breaking" and "crashing".The words she uses are also onomatopeic so they sound like the actual sound that is made, such as "bang", "clang" and "crash" to show how everyday things become noisy and exciting.

These normal everyday objects are personified because they are doing things that would be impossible for an inanimate object, such as beds, pots and chairs. " The bed is lifting out of it's nightmares" this makes the reader picture something incredible and amazing, something that nobody ever thought could happen, this could parrellel what is happening to her, that she herself is breaking free from something, maybe her nationality and the label that comes with it.

She uses alliteration in the first and second stanza of the poem, "search of space" and " crash through clouds", this along with the onomatopiea strenghthens the sense of forceful, courageous or strong movement.

She uses language to create an exciting atmosphere in stanza three " this is the time and place to be alive" this phrase sums up the joy of the moment and what she is feeling.

She also uses rhyme in stanza 3 when she talks about the "daily furniture of our lives" with "when the improbable arrives" she talks about normal day to day things that she sees in her normal routine and how it is 'stirred' so it is disrupted and this is something that isn't expected to happen so it is 'improbable'. This is used metaphorically to talk about how her breaking free from this 'thing'(may be her nationality but could be a number of things) and how it is not expected, it's a shock and it 'stirs' the normal order of things.

Later in the stanza it uses more onomatopeia to symbolise more movement, celebration and excitement, " Pots and pans bang together, in celebration, clang" this gets the reader to feel and sense the joy and optimism she is feeling.

She then personifies household stored foods, "past the crowd of garlic, onions, spices," this could be indicating that there is a fair amount that she is leaving behind. Or, because these are ingredients associated with Indian cuisine she could just be emphasising that she no longer wants to be identified by traditionally Indian things and again that she is breaking free from that label and is embracingher own identity as an individual.

In the fourth stanza she uses personal pronouns, and is now directly applying the metaphor to herself, "I'm wondering where", this gives the reader more insight into what she may be talking about in the poem and what the message is that she is that she is trying to get across.

She then uses a metaphor of her feet that could be symbolising her roots, "I've left my feet" this may be symbolically related to where she is grounded and that she is no longer attached or bound to it, that is, her nationality. So one part of her is now slightly unstable because of breaking free.

There is a part at the end of the last stanza that is separated, " my hands are outside, clapping" this symbolises her hands no longer being a part as they have broken free and they are 'clapping' or celebrating. So although she has lost a small part of her that may make her feel unstable there is another part of her and is happy and excited, celebrating the fact that she has broken free.

The poem was written by Sappho who is actually the first recorded poet in history.

Imagery is used in writing to create vivid mental images by appealing to the senses of the reader. It helps to evoke emotions, enhance the mood of the text, and make the writing more engaging and memorable. By painting a picture with words, imagery allows readers to connect to the text on a deeper level.

In the book "Savvy" by Ingrid Law, an example of hyperbole is when Mibs says "my brain is as fried as a poached egg." This is an exaggeration to show that her brain is overwhelmed or exhausted.

"Animal Farm" by George Orwell uses farm animals to satirize political systems. "The Call of the Wild" by Jack London features a dog navigating the wilderness. "Watership Down" by Richard Adams tells the story of rabbits on an epic journey.

One example of imagery in books is the description of a character's clothing in vivid detail, allowing readers to visualize their appearance. Another example could be the use of colorful and detailed scenes to create a sense of place or atmosphere, helping readers imagine the setting more clearly. Additionally, metaphors and similes comparing two unlike things can create strong mental images for readers.

Around 18-24 months, children start demonstrating the ability to use mental imagery and symbolic systems. This is marked by the development of pretend play, where they use objects symbolically and engage in make-believe scenarios. This represents the beginning of their cognitive growth in understanding and representing the world around them.

In the audio-lingual method, students are expected to actively participate in listening to model sentences, repeating them, and practicing drills to reinforce language patterns. Their role is to focus on imitating correct pronunciation and grammar structures through repetition and mimicry. Students are also encouraged to be active listeners and engage in speaking activities to internalize the language patterns.

Jonathan Edwards often used vivid and intense imagery in his sermons to convey the urgency and gravity of his message. He employed imagery depicting fiery pits of hell and the wrath of God to evoke fear and conviction in his listeners, aiming to lead them to repentance and conversion. Edwards' use of powerful imagery was a key element in his influential preaching style during the Great Awakening.

In Ephesians 2:11-22, Paul used imagery such as walls of hostility being broken down, the building of believers as a temple for God, and the idea of Gentiles being brought near to God through Christ's sacrifice. These visual metaphors emphasize the unity and reconciliation that believers experience through Christ.
