Assonance (semantics)
Assonance is a term in semantics for the sound of a typical sign that refers to another signified . If the typical character is a verbal character, the linguistic message is both denotation and connotation .
Example at Roland Barthes
In Rhétorique de l'image , Roland Barthes analyzes the messages of a Panzani advertisement. The typical character Panzani can be examined as a linguistic message: It provides “not only the name of the company ... but, through its assonance, an additional signified , namely, if you will,“ Italianity ”; the linguistic message is therefore double (at least in this picture): one of connotation and denotation.
