Huck Finn...?

Question

Can anyone find personification, a metaphor, a hyperbole, a metonymy, and a synecdoche in The Adventures of Huck Finn?

I know what all of these are, but I'm having trouble finding them in the novel. Thanks!

Oh, also, I would need the exact quote from the book.

Thanks, once again!

I DID read the book and I didn't find any. I only found similies. I'm not a slacker, I've looked for hours and can't find anything.

You don't know me, so you can't judge.

PS - It's not on cliffnotes.

Answer 1

metonymy.... i would use huck's frequent desision to 'go to hell' rather than follow societies rules. ( because he associates the phrase with doing something he shouldn't rather than actually going to hell, i'd consider it metonymy)
synecdoche.... people calling jim 'that n***er' (which is using a part of him to describe the whole).
personification..... something about the river should be easy enough to find, even the "mouth of the river" would do, although i'm sure there is something better.
hyperbole.... this abounds in the novel. pretty much everything huck says is exaggeration "Tom told me what his plan was, and I see in a minute it was worth fifteen of mine for style"
metaphor.... look at some of the duke and dauphin's speeches. they use them a lot.

Answer 2

I don't know if this qualifies for a hyperbole, but the business about the whitewashing of the fence I would characterize as:

"You can catch more flies with honey than vinegar."
