Describe what an anaphora is. You need to write a textYou need each sentence to start the same wayYou need an anaphora! The anaphora (from the Greek "anaphorá", which means "carrying back") is a rhetorical device where the sentences of a text all begin with the same string of words. Not only does it add impact and rhythm to the text, it also makes it easier to remember, which is why you usually find this device being used for speeches or Poetry. In another medium, if each scene of a movie or Comic Book starts the same way, it can also work as a visual anaphora. Since the anaphora is about repetition, the title of the text may be the same string of words that is being repeated (or get mistaken as such). The opposite of an anaphora is an epiphora (also called epistrophe), or when you repeat the final word in a sentence for emphasis. When you mix the two, you get Symploce (example: "She is the soldier we need. She is the savior we need). Note that anaphora also has a second, linguistics-specific definition that is quite different from the rhetorical definition this trope covers. In linguistics it refers to the use of a word or phrase whose meaning is only clarified by the preceding clause: "Sally turned in the exam late, much to her embarrassment." This usage has its own distinct counterpart called "cataphora." One-Liner, Name... One-Liner examples may also be this, if it deviates from the basic form enough. Compare with "Groundhog Day" Loop where each day is the same and could start the same way consecutively. Overlaps with Repeated for Emphasis since this trope also involves repetition as an essential element. The first use of an anaphora can be traced back to religious texts and thus is Older Than Feudalism. Mind you, repeating the exact same full sentence multiple times doesn't count as an anaphora. |

The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri: one of the most famous examples of anaphora in literature can be found in third Canto of the Inferno, where the first three verses function as a self-introduction of the place itself (bonus points for being shown In-Universe as an inscription right above the In-Universe Gates of Hell). In the fifth Canto of Inferno, Francesca begins three of her stanzas in a row with the word "Amor." She does this to blame passion for her crimes and to sway Dante by appealing to his love of poetry and romance. In the thirteenth Canto of Paradiso, three of the first four stanzas begins with the command "Let him imagine" as Dante tries to get across how beautiful the dance of the starry saints is. |

Part III drops the pattern, but features a brief, second anaphora in verse two where four consecutive lines begin with "and the." Each verse in "Picture That" features a chunk of consecutive lines that all start with the verb "picture." Verse three is made almost entirely of these lines, with the sole exception of a Title Drop in the middle. |

Fraggle Rock: In "The Minstrels", Cantus tells Red that she and her friends have been chosen to sing a medley, and that she will be the leader, if each and every one of them finds his own song. They each manage to do this... except Red, who, after hearing Cantus' magic pipe play the songs her friends have found, is sure her song is in the pipe as well. Cantus refuses to let Red play it, then uses the phrase "that's where you're" at the beginning of two phrases in a row, after telling Red that a song must never be played to be heard. | |

The Wall: In "Goodbye Blue Sky", the verses begin almost every line with the words "did-did-did-did you," tying in with how the lyrics reminisce on the scars of World War II, which Pink's father died fighting in. Almost every line in "Mother" begins with either "mother" (in Pink's verses) or "mama" (in the titular mother's choruses). Usually they form part of the larger phrases "mother, do you think" or "mama's gonna." In "Hey You", almost every set of lines in the verses begins with a Title Drop. "Waiting for the Worms" begins each line of the hook with the word "waiting," tying in with its nature as a List Song about all the things Pink wants to see happen while envisioning himself as a neofascist dictator. |

Melina KB: In "I've Had Enough", each stanza's starting verse parallels the one adjacent to them via the first words; except for the bridge. The two opening stanzas—as well as the one immediately after the chorus—begin with "So you + verb [...]" as a way to mock the abusive partner's hypocrisy. A pair of stanzas starts with "Closed for [...]". Another stanza has four verses opening with "You're/Your/You". The chorus dials it up, with its two (different) stanzas starting with "Here's to the 'no's", and then has each following verse open with "To the + noun". The "Here's to [...]" sentence gets repeated in the closing stanza. | |
