What figure of speech is 'fatal shore'?

Answer 1

It is a 'transferred epithet' where in the word 'fatal' is the epithet and the poetic device is a transferred epithet as 'shore' in itself is not fatal but the events that have taken place there have been fatal.

Answer 2

In and of itself, it doesn't appear to have much deeper a meaning than a shore in which death occurs.

It could be a hyperbole: supposing that the shore is more dangerous than it really is.

It could be a a metaphor: supposing that the shore is almost like death.

It could be foreshadowing: supposing later in the work that shore will be subject to a significant event.

It could be irony: considering the shore is a place of tranquility but maybe made out to be fatal.

Maybe I'm overlooking something, but I don't think there's enough information to analyze it in depth.
