Metanoia is a rhetorical device that involves the revision or rephrasing of a statement in order to enhance its clarity, correctness, or impact. It often involves the use of a corrective phrase that alters or negates the initial statement, providing a more nuanced or reflective viewpoint. This technique can be employed to express deeper insight or to soften a previous assertion.
