📌 Epanalepsis
Definition:
Epanalepsis is a rhetorical device in which the same word or phrase is repeated at both the beginning and the end of a clause or sentence. This repetition emphasizes the idea and can create a sense of completeness or circularity.
✅ Example:
- “The king is dead, long live the king!”
- “King” appears at both the beginning and end of the clause.
Another example:
- “Beloved is mine; she is beloved.”
