Pun (It. puntiglio) - comic playful use of a word or a phrase based on semantic ambiguousness, polysemy: There isn’t a single man in the hotel
e.g.- Did you miss my lecture ?
- Not at all.
Pun seems to be more varied and resembles zeugma in its humourous effect only.
Quotation - is a phrase or sentence taken from a work of literature or other piece of writing and repeated in order to prove a point or support an idea. They are marked graphically: by inverted commas: dashes, italics.
Question in the narrative - changes the real nature of a question and turns it into a stylistic device. A question in the narrative is asked and answered by one and the same person, usually the author. It becomes akin to a parenthetical statement with strong emotional implications. e. g. For what is left the poet here? For Greeks a blush - for Greece a tear. As is seen from these examples the questions asked, unlike rhetorical questions do not contain statements. Question in the narrative is very often used in oratory. This is explained by one of the leading features of oratorical style - to induce the desired reaction to the content of the speech.
Represented Speech - a style of narration presenting words and thoughts of a character in the name of the author; in contrast to direct or indirect speech characteristics of grammatical or formal differentiation no identification of a change of communicative roles of an author or a character is given. To distinguish between the two varieties of represented speech we call the representation of the actual utterance through the author's language "uttered represented speech", and the representation of the thoughts and feelings of the character unuttered or inner represented speech.
Rhythm (Gr. Rhythmos) as recurrence of stressed and unstressed syllables as well as repetition of images, notions, connotations; phonetic repetitions as the basis of rhythm in poetry, syntax as the basis of rhythm in prose.
