AConcrete personification

BAbstract personification

CLiteral personification

DEmotional personification

Answer:

B. Abstract personification

Read Explanation:

  • Here, "Knowledge" is not physically described as a human being, but it is given an action—unrolling a page—which is something a person might do.

  • This type of personification is called abstract personification because it applies human-like actions to an abstract concept (like knowledge, time, death, or fate) without turning it into a visible human form.
