Everything about Homage totally explained
» For medieval usage see homage (medieval) and commendation ceremony, or Homage (disambiguation)
Homage (from the
French:
Hommage) is generally used in modern
English to mean any public show of
respect to someone to whom one feels indebted. In this sense, a reference within a creative work to someone who greatly influenced the
artist would be an homage. It is typically used to denote a reference in a work of art or literature to another, at least somewhat widely known, work. In
literature and
film, an homage is similar to an
allusion, except that whereas an allusion merely refers to another work, a homage typically repeats a recognizable scene or stylistic element from the other work. Homage is also similar to
parody, except that parodies typically exaggerate characteristics of previous works for comedic effect.
