Question

what is the source of the allusion in the sentence below? the politicians staff decided it was time to get off the titanic, so they left the campaign and started looking for other jobs. a fable a song history

Explanation:

The allusion to "Titanic" refers to the historical event of the RMS Titanic's sinking. The staff sees the campaign as a failing venture (like the Titanic, which was doomed to sink), so they leave. A fable is a fictional story with a moral, and a song isn't the source here. The source is the historical tragedy of the Titanic.

Answer:

history
