<em><u>Joseph Stalin</u></em> was a Soviet revolutionary and politician who ruled the Soviet Union from the mid 1920's until his death in 1953.  In his many speeches and official statements, Stalin uses logical fallacies or other forms or faulty argumentation.

One example is how he uses the logical fallacy of post hoc ergo propter hoc to indicate that the year and a half of peace was a consequence of the non aggression pact he and Hitler had signed. This was flawed because during that time of peace, Hitler could have attcked the Soviet Union at ny given time. It is a logical fallacy of post hoc ergo propter hoc because it assumes that since event Y followed event x, then event Y must have been caused by event X.

Another example of Stalin's forms of faulty argumentation is the use of the fallacy slippery slope, when he urges that if the Soviet Union does not fight with "everything" they have, they will be completely destroyed. This is an example of a fallacy slippery slope because it is an assumption that taking a small action will lead to an ludicrous consequence.

In Emilio Gentile’s<span> ‘Politics as Religion,’ </span>Gentile describes the sacralising of Stalin’s regime in the following words:

<span>The sacralization of the party opened the way to the sacralization of Stalin when he became the supreme leader.  After 1929, the political religion of Russia mainly concentrated on the deification of Stalin, who until his death in 1953 dominated the party and Soviet system like a tyrannical and merciless deity.</span>

In his soliloquy, Claudius talks about his crime, and he says that it "bears the mark of Cain" who also killed his brother. Although we had been suspicious of Claudius throughout the story, this is the moment when our doubts are confirmed. We also learn that Claudius is extremely guilty about his actions, but that he believes that time and God's mercy will eventually help him overcome this feeling of guilt.

Read the excerpt from Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms.
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

What exemplifies these men as heroes, as described by Hemingway, is:

D. They act casually and go about regular business, such as smoking, while actually in grave danger.

Explanation:

"A Farewell to Arms" is a novel by author Ernest Hemingway narrated from a first-person perspective. The narrator is Frederic Henry, an American lieutenant who is serving in Italy during the first World War.

This particular excerpt shows how the men are able to keep a cool head even though they know an attack is about to happen. That is what distinguishes heroes from those they protect. While regular people would feel nervous or scared, would run away to escape danger, heroes are able to remain calm. To show that, Hemingway describes how easily they go about regular business, such as smoking, as if danger is not lurking.
