Simile or Allusion or both? [on hold]












0















An allusion is simply a brief mention of a person, place or event. A simile is a statement comparing similar qualities between two different things.



Consider the following examples:




  1. This place is like a Garden of Eden.

  2. She has a mysterious smile like that of Mona Lisa.


Are these examples of Allusion? or Simile? or both?
