  6. #synecdoche involves replacing a specific part of something with the whole.

    #metonymy involves replacing a word or phrase with a related one.

    For example, “stars and stripes” is a synecdoche for the American flag because these are part of the flag.

    On the other hand, “the crown” is a metonymy for the monarchy

  11. Anyone else have a strange dream last night? In mine, I was talking to #EthanHawke about #Poe for a Poe conference that we were both attending & where I was giving a paper. I separated from the dream, wondering why I was dreaming that, & realized that it was b/c I'd just been reading a ms. about #Poe & #TheRaven. After figuring that out, I realized I forgot to bring the paper I was supposed to deliver. When I woke up, I was deciding whether to give it off the cuff or bail.
