I have great problems with literature. There are my questions :
1. Maybe someone know the defintions of these metaphors Definitional
 Concretive
 Animistic
 Humanising
 Dehumanising
 Synaesthetic
2. Explain why Daniel Defoe`s “ Robinson Crusoe” can be seen as a representative text of the english literature of the 18th century.
3. Explain the difference between animal fable and an allegory.
4. Provide three main types of plot development in an allegorical text.
5. Give the main types of character in an allegorical text using : Lord of the Flies
6. Justify the status of “ robinson Crusoe” by Daniel Defoe as a
representative English novel.
I will be very grateful if someone give me even one answear for these questions.

Zonker....you need a reference book such as
this to help you with the definitions:

From A Glossary of Literary Terms:MH Adams:

Synaesthesia is the experience of two or more modes of sensation when only one sense is being stimulated.

In literature the term is applied to descriptions of one kind of sensation in terms of another: color is attributed to sounds, odor to colors, sound to odors, and so on.
