Literary Devices in Romeo and Juliet, Part 5

Question 1 • Twilight Session 1 (Fall 26): Literature and Composition I_CThompson

Which is an example of an oxymoron?

Answer
A
“well-seeming”
B
“cold fire”
C
“Dost thou not laugh?”

Explanation

An oxymoron combines words with contradictory meanings. “Cold” and “fire” seem to conflict, so “cold fire” is the example. “Well-seeming” is not a clear contradiction, and “Dost thou not laugh?” is a question, not an oxymoron.
