/ˈalᵻɡ(ə)ri/, U.S.

/ˈæləˌɡɔri/

β. 1500s allegoria.

Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French allegorie; Latin allēgoria.

Etymology: < (i) Anglo-Norman and Middle French allegorie narrative which has a hidden or ulterior meaning, such a meaning or its interpretation (French allégorie ; in extended uses from 17th cent.), and its etymon (ii) classical Latin allēgoria figurative or metaphorical language, in post-classical Latin also allegorical interpretation of Scripture passages (early 3rd cent. in Tertullian) < ancient Greek ἀλληγορία figurative or metaphorical language, in Hellenistic Greek also allegorical exposition of mythical legends, lit. speaking otherwise than one seems to speak, apparently < ἀλληγορος allegorical (although this is first attested in Byzantine Greek; < ancient Greek ἀλλο- allo- comb. form + -ηγορος in sense ‘speaking’ < ἀγορά agora n.¹; compare ἀγορεύειν to speak in the assembly) + -ία -y suffix³. Compare Catalan al·legoria (1390), Spanish alegoría (13th cent. as allegoria), Portuguese alegoria (13th cent.), Italian allegoria (1308).In the interpretation of scripture, Eucherius (5th cent.) distinguishes four categories: anagoge anagoge n., historia history n., tropologia tropology n., and allegoria. Cassian (5th cent.) also recognizes these categories. Jerome (4th cent.), on the other hand, uses allegoria, anagoge, and tropologia interchangeably.

1. The use of symbols in a story, picture, etc., to convey a hidden or ulterior meaning, typically a moral or political one; symbolic representation. Also: the interpretation of this.Here and in sense 2 originally (Theology) with reference to the interpretation of spiritual rather than literal meaning in scripture, sometimes also distinguished from tropological (moral) and anagogical (mystical) methods (see note in etymology).
