Poetry > Trope
The following information is about Trope.
Trope Defined
The intentional use of a word or expression figuratively, i.e., used in a different sense from its original significance in order to give vividness or emphasis to an idea. Some important types of trope are: antonomasia, irony, metaphor, metonymy and synecdoche.
Sidelight: Strictly speaking, a trope is the figurative use of a word or expression, while figure of speech refers to a phrase or sentence used in a figurative sense. The two terms, however, are often confused and used interchangeably.

- xie_xie_xie: Rape in QAF fanfiction: The bottom line is that it's not really rape in fiction or fanfiction per se that I'm questioning, but the motivations we have in using it in a story and whether we really have the skill to navigate that minefield and not fall into cheapness, cliche, and exploitation or, as it's often called, bad!fic.
