1. Allusion
In literary terms, an allusion is the technique of making a short reference to a well-known text in popular culture to add more meaning to your writing. You may for example write a story about a girl with a red cloak and allude to the fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood. Another example could be drafting the Ten Commandments for Surviving Middle School drawing on the Ten Commandments in the Bible.
