How does the author Rick Riordan in the book:The Lightning Thief ,use allusion to move the plot forward

English

sattari [20]3 years ago

Riordan absolutely loves making allusions to ancient mythology. In the Lightning Thief for example, when fighting Medusa, Percy avoids looking at her by using a garden sphere. This is an allusion to the myths, when Perseus avoided looking at Medusa by using his own shield like a mirror. That's a simple example. Let me know if you need more.

What rhetorical device is being used in this example?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The Rhetorical device used in the example is Pathos.

Explanation:

Rhetorical Device is simply a literary tool which helps us to understand the structure and writing style of any particular sentence.

‘The Glass Castle’ is a book by Jeannette Walls where she describes her own life story of poverty. The line, Years from now when all the junk they got is broken and long forgotten,’ Dad said, ‘you’ll still have your stars’ is an example of Pathos rhetorical device. The appeal of this device is based on emotion.

The line depicts how her father provides an justification for not having any Christmas present for his children. There’s a deeply felt emotion in this line. The helplessness of a father and a sadness of his kids.
