IMAGERY AS A STYLISTIC CATEGORY

KINESTHETIC IMAGERY DEFINITION
4Kinesthetic imagery, also called kinesthesia, refers to descriptions of motion. The sensations one feels when on the move, like running against the wind or swimming through brisk waters, are examples of kinesthetic imagery.
The sensations one feels when on the move, like running against the wind or swimming through brisk waters, are examples of kinesthetic imagery.
Kinesthesia might seem similar to tactile imagery, but the difference is that kinesthesia always describes movement. So, a bee sting is tactile, but a bee whizzing past your arm is kinesthetic; the coldness of a wall is tactile, but the feeling of a cold wall moving against you is kinesthetic.
KINESTHETIC IMAGERY EXAMPLES
“At last, swooping at a street corner by a fountain, one of its wheels came to a sickening little jolt, and there was a loud city from a number of voices, and the horses reared and plunged.
—Charles Dickens, excerpt from A Tale of Two Cities.
“It was strange, learning the contours of another’s loneliness. You could never know it all at once; like stepping inside a dark cave, you felt along the walls, bumping into jagged edges.”
—Brit Bennett, excerpt from The Mothers.
ORGANIC IMAGERY DEFINITION
Organic imagery refers to descriptions of internal sensation. When the writer uses concrete description to show an internal landscape of feelings, pains, emotions, and desires, they’re using organic imagery.
When the writer uses concrete description to show an internal landscape of feelings, pains, emotions, and desires, they’re using organic imagery.
Organic imagery can be physical, like stomach pain or a headache, but it can also be emotional: the feeling of your heart dropping into your gut, or the burn of jealousy in your temples.
ORGANIC IMAGERY EXAMPLES
There is a gun in my stomach. There is a hole in my throat. There is a reason why every good thing ends with a forest burning.
—S. K. Osborn, excerpt from There’s A Lot of Good Reasons to Go Out West.
“So was I once myself a swinger of birches.
And so I dream of going back to be.
