This question is based on General Literary Principles

Allegory is used to describe a work in which

Answer Details
Allegory is used to describe a work in which abstract ideas are personified. In an allegory, characters and events represent abstract concepts and ideas in order to convey a moral or political message. This is often done through the use of symbolism, where a physical object or character represents a larger idea or concept. For example, in George Orwell's Animal Farm, the animals represent different groups of people and political ideologies, and their actions and interactions represent the real-world political struggles and power dynamics between those groups.
