Consider the sample dictionary entry for the word allusion

English
1 answer:
Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
8 0
I'm not sure what the sample dictionary entry is, but an allusion is basically when something is being referenced indirectly. For example, I could say "I'm not the hero this town needs, I'm the hero this town deserves" and that would be an allusion to batman since I'm referencing the film without directly explaining where it's from.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay book:
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: A) allusion

Explanation: It can't be foreshadowing as anyone who read the series already knew what kind of leader Coriolanus Snow was. It also can't be or B) because the definition of personification is the attribution of a human characteristics to something nonhuman. Now it could be C) but the author uses symbolism a lot in the Hunger Games series, for example the white roses and the Mockingjay as well as the Mockingjay pin, and comparing  the character Coriolanus Snow stemming from Shakespeare's play Coriolanus doesn't seem like how she writes symbolism but I could be wrong. The definition of allusion is an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly or an indirect or passing reference and that sounds like what the author is going for with having Coriolanus Snow based off of Shakespeare's play Coriolanus.
