Juxtaposition 2

today class, the lecturer give lecture about juxtaposition again but deeper understand compare with last class.
Juxtaposition can be use in verbal and text. there 2 type in verbal and text analogy, metaphor and similes.
for metaphor, it show comparing between things without using "as" and "like" while similes using those 2 word when doing comparison.

example:
A wire IS a road for electrons. A metaphor suggesting that electrons actually do use a wire as a road to travel on.

A good book IS LIKE a good meal. A simile suggesting that a book may be as (mentally) nourishing and satisfying as a meal.

there 2 type idea of analogy:
-logical analogy (comparing using similarity in design through physical of the object)
-affective analogy (comparing through emotional resembles, using intrinsic values of the object)

what is oxymoron?
wikipedia "
An oxymoron (plural oxymorons, or sometimes the Greek plural oxymora) is a figure of speech that combines normally contradictory terms. They appear in a variety of contexts, including inadvertent errors such as extremely average, deliberate puns like same difference, and literary oxymorons that have been crafted to reveal a paradox."

example of oxymoron:

you can clearly see the oxymoron in these pictures.


personal reflection:

Today lecture still in juxtaposition topic but in deeper understand. inside this topic there subtopic about oxymoron. Same as juxtaposition, i never heard the word oxymoron *due to lacking in knowledge..heee*. When the lecturer give explanation about oxymoron, its very interesting. How people do the oxymoron without their knowing about it.v^-^v
