    Giants And Pygmies

    By Ronald Ridout

    I feel into a high road, for so I took it to be, though it served to the inhabitants only as a footpath through a field of barley. Here I walked on for some time, but could see little on either side, it being now at least harvest, and the cornrising near forty feet. I was an hour walking to the end of this field, which was fenced in with a hedge of at leastone hundred and twenty feet high, and the trees so lofty that I could make no computation of their altitude.

    There was a stile to pass from this field into the next. It had four steps, and a stone to cross over when you came to the uppermost. It was impossible for me to climb this stile, because every step was six feet high, and the upper stone above twenty.

     I was endeavouring to find some gap in the hedge, when I discovered one of the inhabitants in the next field, advancing towards the stile, of the same size with him I saw in the sea, pursuing our boat. He appeared as tall as an ordinary spire-steeple, and took about ten yards at every stride, as near as I could guess.

     I was struck with the utmost fear and astonishment, and ran to hide myself in the corn, from whence I saw him at the to of the stile looking back into the next field on the right hand, and heard him call in a voice many degrees louder than a speaking-trumpet; but the nose was so high in the air, that at first I certainly thought it was thunder.

    Whereupon, seven monsters like himself came towards him with reaping hooks in their hands, each hook about the largeness of six scythes. These people were not so well clad as the first, whose servants or labourers they seemed to be; for, upon some words he spoke, they went to reap the corn in the field where I lay.

    I kept from them at as great a distance as I could, but was forced to move with extreme difficulty, for the stalks of the corn were sometimes not above a foot distant, so that I could hardly squeeze my body betwixt them.

    However, I made  shift to go forward, till I laid by the rain and the wind. Here it was impossible for me to advance a step; for the stalks were so interwoven that I could not creep through, and the beards of the fallen ears so strong and pointed that they pierced through my clothes into my flesh.

    At the same time I heard the reapers not above an hundred yards behind me. Being quite dispirited with toil, and wholly overcome by grief and despair, I lay down between two ridges, and heartily wished I might there end my days.

  • 22 Contoh Figure of Speech Chiasmus dan Pengertiannya

    22 Contoh Figure of Speech Chiasmus dan Pengertiannya

    Chiasmus adalah kiasan di mana kata-kata, konstruksi tata bahasa, atau konsepnya diulang dalam urutan terbalik, dalam bentuk yang sama atau bentuk yang dimodifikasi. Dengan kata lain, klausa dari kalimatnya menampilkan paralelisme yang dibalik.

    Dalam retorika, pola verbal (sejenis antitesis) dimana ekspresi frase kedua seimbang terhadap ekspresi frase pertama dengan bagian-bagian yang dibalik. Pada dasarnya ini sama dengan antimetabole.

    Saat ini, chiasmus telah diterapkan secara luas untuk setiap “selang-seling” struktur, meskipun dalam retorika klasik itu dibedakan dari perangkat sejenis lainnya, seperti antimetabole. Dalam aplikasi klasik, chiasmus akan digunakan untuk struktur yang tidak mengulang kata-kata dan frase yang sama, namun membalikkan struktur gramatikal dari suatu kalimat atau gagasan. Konsep chiasmus pada tingkat yang lebih tinggi, diterapkan pada motif, antara dua frase, atau seluruh bagian kalimat, dan disebut struktur chiastic.

    Perlu diperhatikan bahwa chiasmus meliputi anadiplosis, tapi tidak setiap kalimat anadiplosis membalikkan dirinya sebagaimana dalam cara kalimat chiasmus. Ciasmus sendiri berasal dari bahasa Yunani yang berarti, “mark with the letter X.”/”tanda dengan huruf X.”

    22 Contoh Figure of Speech Chiasmus dan Pengertiannya

    “Nice to see you . . . to see you nice.” (Chiastic catchphrase of British TV entertainer Bruce Forsyth)

    Senang bertemu denganmu… Untuk melihatmu baik.

    “In the end, the true test is not the speeches a president delivers; it’s whether the president delivers on the speeches.” (Hillary Clinton, March 2008)

    Pada akhirnya, ujian sejati bukanlah pidato yang diberikan presiden melainkan apakah yang diberikan presiden pada pidato.

    “I had a teacher I liked who used to say good fiction’s job was to comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable.” (David Foster Wallace)

    Aku punya seorang guru yang saya suka yang sering mengatakan pekerjaan fiksi yang baik adalah untuk menghibur yang sedang terganggu dan mengganggu yang sedang nyaman.

    “I flee who chases me, and chase who flees me.” (Ovid)

    Aku berlari dari yang mengejarku, dan mengejar yang melarikan diri dariku.

    “Fair is foul, and foul is fair.” (William Shakespeare, Macbeth I.i)

    “Your manuscript is both good and original; but the part that is good is not original, and the part that is original is not good.” (Samuel Johnson)

    16 Contoh Figure of Speech Assonance dan Pengertiannya

    Assonance adalah pengulangan dari suara vokal yang identik atau mirip dalam kata-kata yang berdekatan. Assonance adalah pengulangan suara vokal untuk menciptakan berima internal dalam frase atau kalimat, dan bersama-sama dengan alliteration dan consonance berfungsi membentuk blok sebuah verse. Assonance adalah sajak yang identitasnya hanya tergantung pada vokal suara. Dengan demikian, assonance hanyalah kemiripan suku kata.

    Assonance juga disebut ‘vowel rhyme’. Assonance lebih sering terjadi pada sajak daripada dalam bentuk prosa. Hal ini digunakan dalam puisi (terutama puisi modern) berbahasa Inggris, dan digunakan pula di dalam bahasa Old Perancis, Spanyol dan bahasa Celtic.

    Assonance berbeda dari sajak dalam sajak yang biasanya melibatkan kedua vokal dan suara konsonan. Assonance berasal dari bahasa latin yang berarti, “sound”/”suara”.
