We will have our first poetry quiz on Tuesday 9/18 (50 pts.). This will be mainly a multiple choice exercise, and you will need to know the following terms to do well on it:
Simile
Apostrophe
Metaphor
Personification
Metonymy
Allusion
Paradox
The link below will help, as will the glossary of terms on p. 1660 of Perrine's. Re-reading chapters five and seven won't hurt either.
