Answer:

literary allusion

Explanation:

An allusion is a literary device used to briefly or indirectly give reference to a person, place, or thing or something that is of historical, political, or literary significance. Just with the mention of this reference the reader have an idea of what the author is trying to tell about.

For instance, If someone is saying, "He's such a Scrooge", that means he is telling that the person resembles "Scrooge", the character of Dickens' Christmas Carol is.

In the same manner, if a poet of another poem is mentioning "The Waste Land" in his poem, then he is using "Literary Allusion", as he is giving reference of a literary work.

Answer:

the first option

Explanation:

Literary allusion is an illuminating or significant  reference in a text to another well known text. If a poem made some references to the piece of poetry of T.S.

Which two elements of ShacWhich two elements of Shackleton's South! are common traits of a memoir?
gladu [14]
One of the main characteristics of a memoir is first-person narration, because a memoir is usually written by a person who has actually experienced all of those memories. A memoir is a French word meaning memory, so this is a text based on someone's memories. Also, a memoir is a blend of actual facts, things that the author has experienced throughout his or her life, and imagination used to create a mixture between a fictional and non-fictional work of art.
