the direction of allusion to the content of the expression. In this case either the title of the text or some of its chapters (ie the introduction of the text) contains allusion which embodies the essence of the whole text becoming its semantic symbol.second variant (context? Allusion) is characterized by the appearance of allusion from the outline of the whole text.second type of allusion according to the semantic classification is called the localized allusion, or allusion with the limited action.

In general, this passing reference is not explained by the writer, so only readers who are familiar with the source of allusion tend to understand or notice it. The wide use of allusions is caused by many reasons. In some special cases, allusion is used because it already communicated what the author wants to say better than he could have himself. More often, though, the writer uses allusions because of the many emotions or ideas that readers may associate with the text to which the writer alludes.in many cases, allusion serves a more specific purpose than simply tapping into a body of associations. Sometimes a reference to another work is given in a context that is drastically opposed to the original meaning. This technique is often used to refute the meaning of the original and to...
