When George calls Walter Prometheus to insinuate that Walter has stubborn characteristics which figure of speech is he using? Hyperbole, metaphor, Epithet, or eponym?
I am pretty sure that when George calls Walter Prometheus to insinuate that Walter has stubborn characteristics he is using eponym because according to its definition it is a particular person\thing for which something is named. Do hope it will help you.
Regards.
1. Eponym
2. because Walter paid willy the investment and lost everything.
