ABSTRACT
This chapter presents a closer look at the working parts; the forms, rhetorical and literary devices, and layouts, which can configure meaning in writing. We say working parts precisely because the forms we discuss here are integral rather than add-ons. They have purpose and provide the techniques through which writers describe, shape, and emphasize their meanings. So what we hope to demonstrate in this chapter are the relations between form and meaning, the agents of representation and evocation, and the various devices that guide the reader.
