Examples of Juxtaposition


A simple pictures tell a thousand words.


Juxtaposition refers to the stimulation of creativity in problem solving, design or other creative pursuit by confronting two unrelated concepts or objects, usually the goal or problem to be solved on the one hand and a randomly selected object or concept on the other. Similar to an oxymoron.



It also can be used in verbally or in text.

It's raining, but I am not taking an umbrella.
We will be giving a party for our new students. We won't, however, be serving drinks.
The student knew about the test on Friday, but still he did not study.
