Allusion An ALLUSION is a reference to an outside work. For example, when a character on a TV show exclaims, “You astound me, Holmes!”, it is an allusion to The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. On a less literary level, if you stub your toe and yell, “D’oh!”, you’re making an allusion to The Simpsons. An allusion can be made to a book, a song, or a poem. Even visual allusions can be made to art or film. Movies that are parodies are filled with allusions. For them to be true parodies, they have to imitate (through allusion) the movies they are spoofing. It’s really much more complicated to explain than do.
