You remember his words: "if i had interfered in behalf of the rich, the powerful, the intelligent, the so-called great, or any o

f their friends, parents, wives or children, it would all have been right. but i believe that to have interfered as i have done, for the despised poor, was not wrong, but right." why did emerson most likely include the quotation from john brown in his speech?

I believe the answer is: <span> to support the righteous notion that John Brown was condemned because he chose to risk being vilified for defending impoverished, helpless people rather than protecting the wealthy and politically well-connected

Emerson implied that the powerful would and the wealthy would always make various attempts to discredit the figure that advocated for a condition that is not aligned with them. And people are easily influenced by those attempt since the powerful control the flow of information.</span>

The most likely reason why Emerson included this quote in his speech is that Emerson wanted to highlight the hypocrisy of society, and its treatment of John Brown. He wants to motivate people to think about the injustice of their condemnation of John Brown. Emerson argues that Brown was so persecuted because he decided to defend the interests of the poor. He argues that if Brown had instead defended the interests of the rich, he would not have gotten in trouble, as it is usually the rich who make decisions on morality and righteousness.

Dying of cancer, Janice promises God that she will devote her life to the church if He lets her live. According to Kübler-Ross,
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Bargaining

Explanation:

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross developed a theory according to which people go through 5 different stages in the process of dying and grief:

  1. Denial: First, the person cannot accept the diagnosis from the doctors or can think there is a mistake and that he/she cannot be dying.
  2. Anger: In this stage, the person gets angry, usually at God, and gets upset and often wonders why is this happening to him/her.
  3. Bargaining: During this stage, the person says <u>she would do anything in exchange for not dying, he/she will make promises</u> (go to church, be a better person) to survive. These promises are usually made to God.
  4. Depression: The person accepts that bargaining will not work and will start a process of sadness, starting to recognize the reality of death.
  5. Acceptance: The person has come to terms with the fact that he/she is going to die and starts saying her goodbyes and reviews the life he/she has lived and makes arrangements referring to her/his death.

In this example, Janice is dying of cancer and she promises God that she will devote her life to church if he lets her live. We can see that s<u>he is bargaining and promising something in exchange for not dying</u>. Therefore, we can see that she is exhibiting the response of bargaining.
