REVENGE TRAGEDY : A dramatic form popular during the Elizabethan Age, in which the protagonist, inflicts retaliation upon a powerful villain. Notable features of the revenge tragedy include violence, bizarre criminal acts, intrigue, insanity, a hesitant protagonist, and the use of soliloquy; the protagonist suffers from an inner turmoil.



END RHYME : in poetry, a rhyme that occurs in the last syllables of verses, as in stanza one of Robert Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”:

"Whose woods these are I think I know,
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow."



End rhyme is the most common type of rhyme in English poetry.

Synecdoche: understanding one thing with another; the use of a part for the whole, or the whole for the part. (A form of metonymy.)

Example of synecdoche: The U.S. won three gold medals. (Instead of, The members of the U.S. boxing team won three gold medals.)
