Four Basic Tropes
Based on the painting of Pablo Picasso "Acrobat on the Ball". So, four basic Tropes(defined by G. Vico) in Semiotics are: 1. Metaphor -- Similarity despite difference (explicit in the case of simile): I work at the coalface == I do the hard work here; 2. Metonymy -- Relatedness through direct association: I'm one of the suits == I'm one of the managers; 3. Synecdoche -- Relatedness through categorical hierarchy: I deal with the general public == I deal with customers; 4. Irony -- Inexplicit direct opposite (more explicit in sarcasm): I love working here == I hate working here.
