For example, when she read with a “beautiful deeply modulated voice,” the students sat “bewitched [and] transformed.” The teacher’s eyes and body language revealed her passion. When she taught about metaphors, for instance, Miss Hancock stood with her “arms raised, elbows bent, [and] palms facing” the students. Most teachers would be embarrassed to behave so dramatically in front of their…

The entire poem is nothing more than an extended metaphor. An extended metaphor is a metaphor that is developed over the course of a body of text. In “The Knight” the…

The Appropriate Use of a Metaphor As children we are taught that society is made up of many different people with many different ideas and beliefs about an array of issues. We are also taught that there are many ways to interpret these different beliefs or situations.
