In the poem "heat," which literary device is used when discussing the wind?

question 6 options:

hyperbole

alliteration

personification

simile

"Heat", by Hilda Doolittle, is a short poem that speaks about the effects of really strong heat on the speaker. It has several characteristics that make it unique, aside from being really short. The first is, we do not know who this speaker is, or where exactly the person is. All we know is that there is a lot of heat and that it must be somewhere tropical because of the mention of fruits falling from trees. Not much else is known. We also know that the speaker has strong feelings and emotions being generated by the sense and perception of this heat. Another thing is that as for literary devices, "Heat" is very particular in that it does not stay with just one device; it makes use of several. One of them is hyperbole, in order to create imagery, which is the end goal. But it also uses a lot of alliteration. In fact, when talking about the wind, one of the characteristics that comes forward is the repetition of the T consonant almost throughout the stanza. The correct answer, then, is B: Alliteration.
