Respuesta :

noun - allusion

definition - an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly; an indirect or passing reference

example - in the Hobbit, allusion is shown when Gandalf made a reference to the Lord of the Rings -

 
"If you're referring to the incident with the dragon," Gandalf said, "I was barely involved. All I did was give your uncle [Bilbo] a nudge out the door.

In "Hobbit" written by Tolkien, we can see allusions to characters from "The lord of the rings" and creatures from Greek, Roman, Celtic and Norse mythology.

Allusion is the figure of speech that allows people, places and other artistic and literary works to be cited in a text, making a reference that increases the reader's understanding or intensify a point in the story.

In "Hobbit" we can see this when:

  • The author presents mythological creatures associated with ancient cultures.
  • Character from other books, such as Gandalf, who appears in "The lod of the rings".

Accordingly, we can conclude that the use of allusions, by the author, enriches the text, making it more complete and comprehensive, in addition to allowing the reader to have access to more resources to understand the text.
