Allusions

These are references to a story or person  outside of the poem. A mythological allusion might refer to the Greek god Zeus, or the myth of Prometheus who brought fire to humans, or to the legend of Icarus and his father Daedalus.

A biblical allusion would refer to a character or story in the Bible, such as the Garden of Eden and the "fall of man."

 Because all myths touch on some fundamental human story that applies to many cultures, the poet is often making a philosophical statement by using this kind of allusion.
