Week 4
juxtaposition
in week 4 we are learning about juxtaposition, what is it?
juxtaposition is synonymous with contrast, two objects or texts that oppose one another.
Many creative processes rely on juxtaposition. By juxtaposing two objects or words next to each other, human brain will automatically associate or transfer meaning. Usually ‘turning’ something familiar to something less familiar or vice-versa.In literature and film, juxtaposition is the arrangement of two opposing ideas, characters, objects, etc. side-by-side or in similar narratives for effect
for example :
· It's raining, but I am not taking an umbrella.
· We will be giving a party for our new students. We won't, however, be serving drinks.
· The student knew about the test on Friday, but still he did not study
