    Allegory → Metaphor

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A metaphor brings domains of meaning into contact. An allegory sustains a further level of interpretation across characters, scenes or a larger representation. A single metaphor may contribute to that pattern, which extends beyond the individual expression.

    Allegory → Symbol

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An allegory builds a representation that invites interpretation in terms of more abstract relations. A single symbol can convey meaning through convention. Symbols can help build an allegory when they form part of a sustained pattern.

  3. R-23 · Cross-field connection · directed

    Allegory → Hermeneutics

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An allegory invites an interpretation that goes beyond its literal wording. Hermeneutics examines the conditions and limits of such interpretation, including the limits of reading a work as if it had a single hidden key.

  4. R-354 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Personification → Allegory

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A personification can turn something abstract into a character who acts within an allegory. A single such figure need not produce a sustained allegorical pattern.
