DescriptionAllusion is a figure of speech, in which an object or circumstance from unrelated context is referred to covertly or indirectly. It is left to the audience to make the direct connection. Where the connection is directly and explicitly stated by the author, it is instead usually termed a reference.

What is the narrator’s intention for “unnaming” the animals?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The narrator's intention for "unnaming" the animals is:

to become one with nature and have equality rather than showing domination over the creatures by labeling them with a name.

Explanation:

This question refers to the short story "She Unnames Them ", by author Ursula K. Le Guin. The narrator is Eve, the first woman created by God according to the Bible. In the story, Eve realizes the need to take back the names given to the animals, and even her own name. She unnames them. Some are hesitant, but in the end all animals accept remaining nameless. She notices then that her purpose has been fulfilled:

<em>They seemed far closer than when their names had stood between myself and them  like a clear barrier: so close that my fear of them and their fear of me became one same fear. And the  attraction that many of us felt, the desire to feel or rub or caress one another’s scales or skin or feathers   or fur, taste one another’s blood or flesh, keep one another warm -- that attraction was now all one with  the fear, and the hunter could not be told from the hunted, nor the eater from the food.</em>

Now, since there are no names to distinguish them, they are all the same. No separation is felt any longer. There are no classes, just "them". Eve then goes to Adam and gives her own name back. She is free, like the animals she unnamed, from the label once forced onto her.
