"faith kept me back awhile." what does young goodman brown create with this excerpt? a. a literary figure b. a figurative figure c. an allegorical figure d. an ideological figure

Young Goodman Brown creates an allegorical figure. Option C is correct.

An allegory as a litarary device is a metaphor in which a character, place or event is employed to give a broader message about real-world issues and occurrences.

In this particular case, Goodman is talking about his wife, Faith, in an allegorical way, delaying his departure from home and his arrival. This illustrates Brown's faith in God which has kept him from the devil's clutches prior to this moment.
