Synantesis; or, Introverted Repetition The Repetition of the same Sentences or Phrases in Inverse Order

Syn-an-tee´-sis, from συναντάω (sunantaô), to meet face to face, means a meeting .

It is similar to Epanodos and Antimetabole (q.v. [Note: Which see.]), but differs from them in that it relates to the inverse repetition of sentences and phrases rather than of single words.
