The attribution of human characteristics, emotions, or intentions to non-human entities or inanimate objects is known as:
- Pathetic Fallacy
- Personification
- Anthropomorphism
- Both B and C are broadly correct in literary contexts
Answer: Both B and C are broadly correct in literary contexts
Personification gives human traits to abstract ideas or objects (e.g., 'the wind whispered'). Anthropomorphism makes animals or objects behave literally like humans (e.g., Animal Farm).
