I would say that Shakespeare uses allusion in this excerpt from Romeo and Juliet. He is alluding, or making a reference to Aurora, who is a character/person outside of Romeo and Juliet.

The figurative language used is simile, which means two different things are being compared and, while the tone is matter-of-factly, the mood is of disgust.

<h3>The figurative language in the text</h3>

The text we are analyzing here contains a simile. Let's answer each question about it below:

  • Type of figurative language: simile.
  • Meaning of figurative language: It compares two different things with the use of "like." Here, injustice is compared to a pus-filled boil.
  • Effect on tone and mood: The author's tone is matter-of-factly, as he makes the comparison as if there was no way to argue with him. The mood is of disgust, since reader cannot help by imagine the boil and the pus as the simile is used.

Purple hibiscus
Umnica [9.8K]

The example of income inequality, and Global Issue, on this page is poverty and sexism. Purple Hibiscus- novel written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

There is an underlying sexism at work in Papa's abuse of family. When the mother tells Kambili she is pregnant, she tells her that she miscarried a few times after Kambili was born. And there's an enormous divide between poor and wealthy, which is tragically obvious in Abba, where most of the people live in poverty while huge mansions sit empty. Purple Hibiscus explores the problems of ethnic tensions and political unrest in Nigeria as parallels for coming of age and defining identity.
