Literary Terms -  Some of these are in your literary terms packets, some you will need to look up in the dictionary.  You will need to know the terms in bold print (listed above) for the Literary Devices Test at the end of the unit. You will need to be able to define the term, explain where/how the term is evident in the novel, and pull a direct quote, (with page number) from the novel as an example of its use in the text. The rest of the terms, listed below, we will be dealing with throughout the novel.  We will discuss these devices and how they are used in the novel extensively in class, however, I will not be collecting them as homework – but you are responsible for knowing them.
