Provides a handbook of more than sixty rhetorical devices from alliteration and parataxis to zeugma and a glossary of such literary terms as adventure novel and epizeuxis to western. A search engine allows both glossary and handbook to be queried for definitions of terms.
COMMENT:
Definitions include extensive examples, and searches allow for trucation and the use of Boolean expressions. There is some overlapping of terms in the "rhetorical" and "literary terms" categories, and the approach and level is relatively elementary.
