in william shakespeare's hamlet, the main character's

him, but also in his own death. hamlet wounds laertes and
then they switch swords. before laertes dies, he gets in a
last jab at hamlet, who ends up being wounded by his own
poisoned sword. the allusion is that not only does laertes
die as expected, but hamlet is doomed to die by the poison
on his own sword as well

characterization
b)the term allusion should be changed to the term
imagery
c)the term allusion should be changed to the term irony
d)the term allusion should be changed to the phrase word
choice

the term allusion should be changed to the term irony, this is how this paragraph should be revised to use the correct domain-specific vocabulary.

The correct answer is C) The term allusion should be changed to the term irony

Explanation:

In literature, irony occurs as the outcome of one event is not what readers or characters expected, instead, an opposite or incongruent outcome occurs. This can be seen in the case of Hamlet because he uses poison on his sword to kill Laertes but instead of killing Laertes with it, Hamlet ends up being killed by the venom. This means there is an incongruence between expectations and results.

Due to this, in the literary analysis, the author should not use the term "allusion" as this refers to mentioning or alluding to another idea, person, literary work, etc. which does not occur, and instead, it is recommended to use the term "irony" because the situation presented is an example of this. Thus, the author should change the term allusion to the term irony (Option C) to use the correct vocabulary.
