Verified Answer :

The best definition of “allegory” is a character or story element that represents people or abstract qualities, in addition to the literal meaning.

An allegory is a figure of speech in which the characters, events or figures are described with abstract ideas and principles. Basically, the objective of using Allegory is to teach some kind of moral lesson. The most famous example of Allegory is John Bunyan's “Pilgrim's Progress” in which abstract ideas like despair, honesty, happiness, etc. were portrayed as real characters. The protagonist of the play is a sinner named Christain who walks from the City of Destruction towards the Celestial City for salvation.
