Asked by Maria

Consider the sentence "The peace accord proposed that a neutral army be deployed to act as a buffer between two sides of a dispute."

Is "buffer" a correct example of "personification"? Or perhaps another rhetorical device?

Thank you.

Not personification, but possibly imagery. It's probably intended to bring up the image of a wall or other kind of barrier between the two sides.
