Enumeration

The enumeration (of Latin numerus , “number”) is a stylistic process which consists in accumulating, the ones following the others, several of the same elements syntactic level, coordinated or not.

For example: This young man was beautiful, splendid, large, muscular and vigorous .

Another example would be: All the winters will return in my being: anger, Hatred, shivers, horror, hard and forced labor. - Charles Baudelaire, “Song of autumn”.

There exist also the accumulatives enumerations of a succession of words of the same family. For example: Its more beautiful fruits push there, cherries, apricots, fishings, quinces . (Blaise Cendrars, Gold )

Moreover, so as in this example the pronouns are removed there is an impression of profusion.
