Answer:

The purposes of King’s allusions are:

  • To evoke images of other freedom fighters.
  • To compare African Americans to Jewish Holocaust victims to illustrate that some laws are unjust.

What is an Allusion?

An allusion is a reference to a popular figure whose name brings something to mind.

In most of King's writings, allusions were made to popular figures. For instance, King used biblical allusions to paint pictures of other freedom fighters in the past.

Answer:

bro please give me BRAINLIEST ANSWER

Explanation:

spondees, anapests and dactyls. In this document the stressed syllables are marked in boldface type rather than the tradition al "/" and "x." Each unit of rhythm is called a "foot" of poetry.

The meters with two-syllable feet are

IAMBIC (x /) : That time of year thou mayst in me behold

TROCHAIC (/ x): Tell me not in mournful numbers

SPONDAIC (/ /): Break, break, break/ On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!

Meters with three-syllable feet are

ANAPESTIC (x x /): And the sound of a voice that is still

DACTYLIC (/ x x): This is the forest primeval, the murmuring pines and the hemlock (a trochee replaces the final dactyl)

Each line of a poem contains a certain number of feet of iambs, trochees, spondees, dactyls or anapests. A line of one foot is a monometer, 2 feet is a dimeter, and so on--trimeter (3), tetrameter (4), pentameter (5), hexameter (6), heptameter (7), and o ctameter (8). The number of syllables in a line varies therefore according to the meter. A good example of trochaic monometer, for example, is this poem entitled "Fleas":

Adam

Had'em.
