Rhetorical Figures Between Traditional Poetry and RapRok Klemenčič, 2020, magistrsko delo
Opis: This Master’s thesis looks into figures of speech used in classical poetry as compared to rap. With the help of Heinrich F. Plett’s analytic scheme, we have established a model for future linguistic comparison which could be modified and applied to various fields and works. The results of the analysis have shown similarities and differences between poetry and rap from the point of view of figures as well as other rhetorical devices: rhythm, structure, motifs, etc. The figures are identified and their potential influence on the perception of the poem/rap song is analysed. Stylistic analysis serves as a basis for the comparison, and the thematically connected pairs allow us a deeper insight into the selected works. Some similarities beyond the mere use of figures are established, i.e., motifs, themes, rhythm and meter. This analysis allows us to compare the genres, while the results show tendencies and characteristics typical of either traditional poetry or rap, i.e., use of certain rhymes, orthography, and punctuation.
