意味(英語)

  • (noun) The representation of abstract ideas or principles by characters, figures, or events in narrative, dramatic, or pictorial form.
  • (noun) A story, picture, or play employing such representation. John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress and Herman Melville's Moby Dick are allegories.
  • (noun) A symbolic representation: The blindfolded figure with scales is an allegory of justice.

例文
