whats cumulative detail???

Cumulative detail is similar to descriptive language. The difference is it concentrates on describing one thing in alot of detail, thus the imagery of a particular thing accumulates (is continually building up) in the responder's mind.

Correct me if I'm wrong english academics.

I used 'cumulative listing' in a recent essay, not sure if its an actual technique though. Might ask the teacher bout it.

Listing is simply providing a set of terms about a certain topic, one after the other. For example:

Australia is coastal, urban, suburban, rural, mountainous and geographically-isolated.
