minor revision - from "Allusion is not to be confused with Allegory" to "Allusion should not be confused with Allegory."
An '''allusion''' is a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance. It does not describe in detail the person or thing to which it refers. The writer expects the reader to possess enough knowledge to spot the allusion and grasp its importance in a text. Allusion is not to be confused with [[Allegory]].
