This literary device site includes the easy (metaphor, personification) to the hard (anaphora, aposiopesis, zeugma), literary devices that students may encounter in reading and studying literature. Some of the examples include clip art and some do not, but they all include both the answer and good examples.

In the Classroom
This may work for teachers as a reference site or even as a quiz review for students. The best part is discovering (or rediscovering) the names for those devices that are used less often, but students often ask about. This list would also work as an addition to AP literary terms that many English teachers give their AP students. Consider having your students create an ongoing class glossary wiki of literary devices with examples from your own literature study during the year. Require them to contribute or give extra credit for their additions and any clever examples or illustrations they may add.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
