Which literary technique helped storytellers remember the words of Beowulf?
Weegy:
There are at least (4) literary techniques/devices associated in remembering the words of Beowulf; alliteration, assonance, caesura, and kenning. Examples of each are: 1. [ Alliteration : "Marshes made his home in hell" in "The Wrath of Grendel." (gives a sense of fear) 2. Assonance : "By God, punished forever for the crime," in "The Wrath of Grendel." (for a crime so cruel, this image of evil beast must be punished by God) 3. Caesura : "Then, when darkness had dropped," in "The Wrath of Grendel." (passage of night, signifying the arrival of Grendel) 4.Kenning : "And all as once the greedy she-wolf," in "The Battle of Grendel's Mother." (can be inferred as revenge for a son) ]
