Why are classical allegories not regarded as realistic fiction?

Answers

The correct answer is:

Their characters are generally flat and merely function as symbols for particular concepts.

Explanation:

Writers or speakers typically use allegories as discovered devices or as rhetorical devices that convey (semi-)hidden instead complicated applications by symbolic figures, actions, metaphors, or events, which collectively create the moral, spiritual, or political interest the author wishes to write Classical allegories are metaphorical in nature.

Allegories are involved in nature and are often thought-provoking and can be defined uniquely by each of its readers, spectators or listeners. On the other hand, genuine fiction is a type of fiction in which the story has elements that can be seen by the audience as something that is currently subsisting and convincing to them.

Classical allegories are metaphorical in nature. This means that they contain metaphors, imagery and symbolical messages all throughout the story. Stories are often philosophical and political in nature that could impose morals or enlightenment. Allegories are complex in nature and are often thought-provoking and can be interpreted uniquely by each of its readers, viewers or listeners.

A person, place or animal is known to the audience and the author; and these elements are only used to create a different story that is fictional with a realistic setting.

Which line in the poem uses metaphor to represent African American slaves?For a Lady I Know

While poor black cherubs rise at seven
To do celestial chores.

Answers

The correct answer is:  While poor black cherubs rise at seven.  This line makes the comparison between the black cherubs and the slaves, making a distinction of social class but this difference is based on the race or color of the skin. Cherub refers to a type of angel.

I think it is "While poor black cherubs rise at seven" because it is comparing the slaves to "Black Cherubs" without using like or as.

Hope that helped :)
