Hyperbaton & Anastrophe - 06/10/07 02:20 AM
I need help!
I have Google'd "hyperbaton & anastrophe" for hours, and I can not find any article that answers my question. Some articles point out that these two words are somewhat synonymous, but I need to know the precise distinction between the two.
When I find the words separately, they each have the same basic definition, which is why I had hoped to find a place that treated both words simultaneously.
Can someone PLEASE provide a clear definition for each of these words, making a clear distinction between the two words (accompanied with clear examples)?
That would be most helpful
Thanks in advance,

PS- As Denzel Washington's character said to the character played by Tom Hanks: "Break it down to me like I am a 5th grader."
