3. anna is reading her favorite story. she enjoys the book because it has several levels of meaning, both literal and symbolic. which literary device is the author using? a. understatement b. dramatic irony c. symbolism d. allegory

The correct answer is D. An allegory is any literary work (such as a novel, short story, or poem) that has a deeper, symbolic meaning. For example, Animal Farm is an allegorical novel that is, on a literal level, about animals on a farm. On a deeper level, however, the animals actually represent different political ideologies. Therefore, the entire novel is an allegory. An allegory is different than a symbol. A story or poem might feature a symbol, which is when one object has a deeper meaning. An allegory is when an entire book has a deeper meaning.
