allusion: an expression designed to call something to mind without mentioning it explicitly; an indirect or passing reference.
Reminiscence is: 1. a story told about a past event remembered by the narrator.
"his reminiscences of his early days in Washington"
2. the enjoyable recollection of past events.
"his story made me smile in reminiscence"
3. a collection in literary form of incidents and experiences that someone remembers.
4. a characteristic of one thing reminding or suggestive of another.
"his first works are too full of reminiscences of earlier poetry"

The word reminiscence really doesn't fit, but from my understanding allusion does.

James ... was meinst du, trifft deine Übersetzung das hier Gefundene? Reminiszenz (lat. reminisci „sich erinnern“) ist eine Bezeichnung für eine Erinnerung oder für einen Anklang an etwas Früheres.
