Anadiplosis

Repeating the same word(s) at the end of a sentence or a clause and in the beginning of the following sentence or clause is known as anadiplosis. For example: “The general who became a slave; the slave who became a gladiator; the gladiator who defied an Emperor.” It’s a good way to give rhythm to your writing.

The word anadiplosis comes from Greek anadiplōsis meaning “repetition” or “to double”.
