Big Question: How does Shakespeare use contrasts?

What is an oxymoron? Here’s a quick and simple definition:

An oxymoron is a figure of speech in which two contradictory terms or ideas are intentionally paired in order to make a point—particularly to reveal a deeper or hidden truth. The most recognizable oxymorons are adjective-noun pairs, as in the phrase "proud humility." But oxymorons can also occur over the course of a clause or sentence, as in "That silence after your joke was deafening." In both examples, the oxymoron joins opposite ideas to make a point (such as that an awkward silence can have a presence comparable to a loud sound).

The word "oxymoron" is itself an oxymoron. It comes from the Greek words oskús, meaning sharp or keen, and morōs meaning dull or foolish.

The words in an oxymoron don't need to to be glued together, as in "heavy lightness" or "serious vanity." They can be spaced out, as in, "His honor rooted in dishonor stood," which is a line from Tennyson's "Lancelot and Elaine."

Multiple Choice QuizAn oxymoron is … a. Words that go together to emphasis a point or idea.b. A figure of speech in which two contradictory terms or ideas are intentionally paired in order to make a point.c. Two ideas that seem to make sense.2. Finish the oxymoron “brawling _________”.HateLightLove 3. Spot the oxymoron in this line: “Good night, good night. Parting is such sweetsorrow.”
