Lexical PolygamyA Story by anandboseIt's a new figurative deviceI bring this
new term again and I hope in future it will be considered as a literary device.
Lexical Polygamy is the literal absorption of the meaning of a text (claiming
the meaning) by not taking into account the contextual significance. For
example in the Bible in Psalms it says: ‘I the Lord will give you the nations
as a present and the continents as a gift’. What a marvelous verse and I have
written it in my purse and I keep reading it every day. © 2019 anandbose |
