<em>Notice that Euchner uses present-tense verbs in his account. </em>
<em> 1. In what verb tense is historical text usually written?</em>
- <em>In both past and present. It is necessary to use the present tense to discuss the actions and ideas that are present in the text. For example, “Edgar Allan Poe in his Method of Composition explains all the steps he generally follows to write short stories”. In this example it is stated that despite Edgar Allan Poe is dead his ideas are present in his Method of Composition. </em>
- <em>We use the past tense when writing about specific historical events. For example, “Winston Churchill said that Germany was dangerously building his armies again.” </em>
<em> 2. What effect does using present-tense verbs create? </em>
- <em>The effect it has, is related to the fact that despite the writer is dead or alive, his or her ideas continue to be present. Literature is a present observable fact.</em>

what's your question though
Passage A from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave is non-fiction, specifically autobiography. Passage B from "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman is poetry written in the sub-genre of free verse. Passage C from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is fiction from the sub-genre of regionalism or local color. All three passages are about the importance of having freedom and hope of freedom. All passages reflect that the wrriters felt that slavery was wrong. Passage A is powerful because it is the true perspective of someone who lived as a slave. It shows how much freedom meant to Douglass. Passage B is poetry that tells a story that may or may not be true. The point of it is that the speaker in the poem treated the slave kindly and as an equal and that he trusted him as a human being and did what he could to help the man to safety. The language is spare and careful, which is where the genre's power lies. Passage C uses characters to make the point: Huck is determined to help Jim escape from slavery even though it is deemed wrong. He knows that slavery is not right, and he chooses to be "bad" rather than allow Jim to remain a slave. The power of fiction is in the situations, characterizations, and dialogue. This passage also tells a story, but it is much longer with greater detail than passage B.
