Explanation:
The allusion in a passage refers to a reference to a well-known person, place, event, or work of literature, art, or music, which is made to evoke particular associations or meanings in the reader’s or listener’s mind. The allusion may be explicit, such as a direct quote, or implicit, such as a subtle reference or hint. The identification and interpretation of allusions often require knowledge of the historical, cultural, or literary context in which they occur.
