Rhetorical Figure Detection: the Case of Chiasmus
We propose an approach to detecting the rhetorical figure called chiasmus, which involves the repetition of a pair of words in reverse order, as in “all for one, one for all”.

Figurative language identification is a hard problem for computers. In this paper we handle a subproblem: chiasmus detection. By chiasmus we understand a rhetorical figure that consists in repeating two elements in reverse order: “First shall be last, last shall be first”. Chiasmus detection is a needle-in-the-haystack problem with a couple of true positives for millions of false positives. Due...

In this paper, we explore the use of syntactic features as a means to improve the quality of chiasmus detection. Our results show that taking sy...
