- Hypophora — A rhetorical figure or stylistic device consisting of posing a question and immediately answering it oneself, used to capture the audience's attention and animate the discourse; hypophora. In modern linguistic analysis, the term describes a simulated dialogue within a monologue, serving to anticipate objections.
