By Maya Angelou asking people to go back to their dreams, referencing Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" Speech, she crea
ycow [4]

Answer:

Allusion.

Explanation:

"On the Pulse Of Morning" is a poem written and recited by Maya Angelou on the eve of the first inauguration of President Bill Clinton. Maya Angelou was the second poet to recite a poem on a presidential inauguration and also the first woman and African American.

In her poem she called the people to go back to their 'dreams.' The call of going back to the dream is used in reference to the speech 'I Have a Dream' delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. By referencing to the 'Dream' of Martin Luther, Maya has created an allusion.

An allusion is a literary device that is used to indirectly use reference of a person, place, thing, or idea in a literary work. It is known as referencing of other's literary work in a literary work. When a writer uses an allusion, he/she does not elaborate much on the topic but expects his audience to understand the idea that he/she wants to convey.

<u>By referencing Martin's 'dream' in her poem, Maya is urging her audience to dream the dream that Martin had for America, of equality and brotherhood.</u>

Thus the correct answer is an allusion.

How did the new camp appear to elie in the Night
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer :

The lines "The camp looked as though it had been through an epidemic: empty and dead. Only a few "well-dressed" inmates were wandering between the blocks." from the book "Night" by Elie Wiesel describe how the new camp appeared to Elie.

The new camp that Elie talks about in these lines is the Buna concentration camp where he and his father had recently been brought. The camp appears to him as if it had been through an epidemic as many of the inmates mostly old men and children have been sent to the chimney or crematorium to be burnt alive to death.
