Answer

Brief Explanations:

Foreshadowing is a literary device where an event hints at a future event. The soothsayer's warning "Beware the ides of March" hints at Caesar's assassination which occurs later. It is not just a general figurative language, not an inversion (word - order change), and not hyperbole (exaggeration).

Answer:

foreshadowing
