What is Understanding Allegory in Literature about?
Allegory is a narrative technique where characters and events represent abstract ideas or principles to convey a hidden meaning about human conduct or a moral lesson. An allegory uses symbolism to draw comparisons between characters or events in the story and real-life people and concepts through extended metaphor. Famous examples of allegories include Animal Farm, which uses animals to represent political figures, and The Faerie Queene, where knights symbolize virtues.
