Question

What rhetorical device is "Because nearly the whole of the produce of our labour is stolen from us by human beings. There, comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word — Man. Man is the only real enemy we have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished for ever."

Answer 1

Answer:

Allusion

Explanation:

Allusion is a literary device that makes reference to something, either a person, place, religion, artwork, music, culture, history or an event. With allusion, it is expected that the reader or listener already has knowledge of what is  being talked about.

Here, the statement- "Because nearly the whole of the produce of our labor is stolen from us by human beings. There, comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word — Man. Man is the only real enemy we have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished for ever" is an allusion to Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto.
