Answer 1

Answer:

Symbolism

Explanation:

Symbolism is a technique that uses symbols such as a word, an object, a person or a place to signify or represent a quality or an idea. In some cases, when an author or a writer wants to express an idea or an emotion, they can decide to use a symbol to give hints instead of writing it out literally. A symbol usually has a much deeper meaning than it appears. Symbols used in a context are often understood based on how it was used and when it was used.

For example, a red rose is a symbol that signifies deep-seated love.
