Answer

The answer is Paradox.

Explanation
Option 1: Faulty parallelism

Faulty parallelism occurs when elements in a sentence that are meant to be parallel in structure are not, leading to awkwardness or confusion. It is not related to contradictory phrases making sense upon analysis.

Option 2: Anaphora

Anaphora is a rhetorical device that involves the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses or sentences. It does not involve contradiction or paradoxical meaning.

Option 3: Paradox

A paradox is a literary element that involves a set of seemingly contradictory or absurd statements that, upon closer examination, reveal an underlying truth. This matches the definition provided in the question.

Option 4: Parallelism

Parallelism is the use of components in a sentence that are grammatically the same or similar in construction, sound, meaning, or meter. It is not related to contradictory phrases making sense upon analysis.
