Answer 1

Allusions are used as stylistic devices to contextualize a story by referencing a famous person, place, event, or other literary work.

Option C. to broaden the context and deepen the meaning of a literary work.

Allusions are used as stylistic devices to contextualize a story by referencing a famous person, place, event, or other literary work. These references need not be stated explicitly. In most cases, authors choose to let readers fill in the blanks.

Allusions can give deeper meaning to a story by referring to another work that most people are familiar with. The use of allusions (references to another work) by characters in a story gives us greater insight into what that person is like.
