Epistrophe forms the counterpart to anaphora by repeating the same word or words at the end of successive phrases, clauses, or sentences. This creates a rhythmic and emphatic effect, drawing attention to the repeated words and emphasizing their significance. Unlike anadiplosis, which only repeats the last word, epistrophe repeats a key word from a preceding phrase, clause, or sentence. This technique can be used for various purposes, such as adding emphasis, creating a memorable effect, or highlighting a contrast or contradiction.
