Oh my lord almost the entire thing is a series of devises, especially irony.
A very obvious example you'd be advised not to use: the irony of Romeo's sacrifice, drinking the poison to be with his love, only to be the cause of her demise. Very poetic.
Another example of irony: The Montague's and Capulet's determination to keep their children safe from the other family, only to drive them both to their graves through increasingly hateful acts.
Honestly the entire story is riddled with irony. Pick a situation where a character makes a choose that ends up doing the oppositite of what they intended.
The soldiers and the journalists that were writing about it were very close to the action. They wrote about their experiences. Moreover, the Vietnam literature has no “escape hatches” (meaning we don't have comic relief, no moments of romance, and scant emphasis on coming-of-age energy).

Answer:
-What is a literary device used in Beowulf?
- Do you think flashback or forshadow is used in Beowulf?
-What do you think is the technique used by the author to presage what happens in Beowulf?
Explanation:
The foreshadowing technique is very important to provide continuity and verisimilitude to the plot, so that the reader feels that things don't just happen unexpectedly: it prepares the reader to accept what is to come. It is also essential to create tension and expectation in the reader. An omen that anticipates that something terrible is about to happen will make it impossible for the reader to detach from your book.
And finally, we use foreshadowing for aesthetic reasons. Because we like to find parallels between the beginning and the end of a novel. Perhaps also because we like things to happen for a reason, because fiction reflects a need to find a deeper meaning to what happens to us.
I had to look for the passage and here is my answer:
Based on the passage attached to this in which the one who narrates in it is Gulliver, the event that is being described in this passage is Gulliver's plan to escape from Lilliput. Lilliput is one of the fictional places in "The Gulliver's Travel" that was written by Jonathan Swift. The answer for this would be the first option.
