Review of literary terms...(hint: need to know these for the quiz on Tuesday)

Copy into your notes:

Juxtaposition--n

the act of positioning close together (or side by side) in order to highlight the differences

Examples of juxtaposition
Juxtaposition in Persepolis

Mood--
 is one element in the narrative structure of a piece of literature. It can also be referred to as atmosphere because it creates an emotional setting enveloping the reader. Mood is established in order to affect the reader emotionally and psychologically and to provide a feeling for the narrative.
Mood can be set by setting, diction (word choice), and tone (attitude of the narrator), etc.

Today we will read:
