The sentence from Herman Melville's short story "The Lightning-Rod Man" which is an example of allusion is the one we find in letter B. Who has empowered you, you Tetzel, to peddle round your indulgences from divine ordinations?
One of the characters is mocked by being called Tetzel, who was a German Dominican preacher who sold "indulgences" (paid forgiveness for one's sins) in the 1500's. In the aforementioned sentence, there is an allusion to Martin Luther, who was openly against Tetzel and his "indulgences". An allusion is an indirect reference to something or someone, and Martin Luther is indirectly mentioned in the sense that it's like he is talking to his adversary. Except it's not Martin Luther himself speaking; it's one of the characters who try to impersonate him.
Answer: The article contains minor grammatical and punctuation errors.
Explanation:
The article provides a description of charcoal paints, the process of making paint, how those paints are being used in sculptures, what those sculptures symbolizes, and the role painters play in Egypt. The article does makes sense, but there are some grammatical mistakes here and there throughout the article. For example, the line 'We make a lot of hard work on it' doesn't really make sense. What's make a lot of hard work? Rather it should have been 'We put a lot of hard work on it.'
Similarly, 'First you need to do is prepare a bow and a mixing stick', here it should have been either 'First, you need to prepare a bow and mixing stick' or 'All you need to do is prepare a bow and a mixing stick.' While writing any article, no matter how talented or good you're at your work, you shouldn't flaunt it, this degrades the quality of an article. In the sentence, 'I'm a very talented painter and if I am then I will need to make a lot of paintings' 'I'm very talented painter' makes readers actually doubt the talent of the artist rather than appreciating it. So it is good to skip this statement.
The readers can easily make out what the speaker is trying to depict in the article, but the speaker just need to work on grammar and punctuations to make the article perfect.
