Answer:

Hi! The figures of speech used in The Story of Keesh, by Jack London, are repetition and metaphor.

Explanation:

First, let's remember that a figure of speech is used by the authors to give the words or sentences a non-literal sense in order to create a rhetorical or vivid effect in the reader. Some of these figures of speech are repetition and metaphors.

In this particular case, the author uses repetition and metaphors to give the reader a more vivid sense when approaching the theme of the story: sacrifice.  So, his purpose in using those techniques is to make the reader really live through his words, to make him/her feel the situations described as if it was  his/her own experience.
