A literary work in which the characters and events are used as symbols is known as _________?
Détails de la réponse
A literary work in which the characters and events are used as symbols is known as an allegory. An allegory is a story or narrative that has a hidden meaning or moral message conveyed through the use of symbols. In an allegory, characters and events represent abstract ideas or concepts, often related to politics, religion, or morality. For example, the novel "Animal Farm" by George Orwell is an allegory in which the animals on a farm overthrow their human owner and attempt to create a society based on equality and freedom. However, the pigs gradually become corrupt and oppressive, representing the rise of Stalinism in the Soviet Union. The animals and events in the story are symbolic of real-life figures and events, allowing the author to criticize political systems and social issues in a veiled and often satirical way. Overall, an allegory is a powerful literary device that can be used to convey complex ideas and messages in a way that is engaging, thought-provoking, and often entertaining.

Question 22 Rapport
_____________refers to time and place of a drama?

The term that refers to the time and place of a drama is "setting." The setting is the physical and social environment in which a story or drama takes place.

The setting can be a specific place, such as a city, a building, or a room, or it can be a more general location, such as a forest, a beach, or a desert.
