Intra-referential tropes are igures of speech that rely on the processes of textual memory for their decoding. This paper will look irstly at citational synecdoches, in which the repetition of a lexical item is used to refer back to a previous passage of the same text by way of synecdochic allusion, and secondly at metonymic anaphora, in which the abbreviation of a descriptive periphrastic phrase is used to refer to characters. Close textual readings will bring out the role of these stylistic devices in narrative poetics-swiftness of narration, comic and dramatic effects.
