    Anticlimax → Climax

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An anticlimax reverses an expected or incipient rise. Its effect becomes clearer alongside the ascending order of a climax. A descending sequence need not be comic.

    Anticlimax → Bathos

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Anticlimax and bathos can both upset expectations of elevation or intensification. Anticlimax concerns the ordering of successive elements. Bathos is a drop in register or tone perceived as incongruous.

    Anticlimax → Irony

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An anticlimax may have an ironic effect by frustrating an expectation of escalation. The effect depends on context. A descending sequence alone does not establish irony.

    Bathos → Anticlimax

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Bathos is a jarring descent from an elevated to a commonplace level. Anticlimax interrupts or reverses a rise in a sequence. It is one way of producing bathos.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A climax arranges elements in ascending order. An anticlimax reverses or frustrates the expected rise. Their relation concerns the direction of a sequence and what the audience expects from it.
