Answer:

Conceit, is the right answer.

Explanation:

In the context of contemporary literary criticism, more popular with class fiction, conceit often involves a widespread oratorical device, summed up in a small expression, that applies to a position which either does not exist, or survives infrequently, but is required for the development.

The word conceit was independently coined in the setting of poetry, beginning from the root notion, conceive. It has finally been prolonged to other kinds of literature, the photography, painting, performing arts and architecture.
