Question

In at least 100 words, compare the structure of Stanton's Declaration of Sentiments to that of Jefferson's Declaration of Independence. Use evidence from the text to support your answer. HELP ME!!!

Answer 1

I cannot do 100 words but: Stanton's declaration of Sentiments was very similar to Jeffersons' Declaration or Independence in many ways. The two structures are layed out almost identical because they use the same tone and ideas used as well. The two documents could be easily confused if not read properly.

Answer 2

Answer:

The Declaration of Sentiments and the Declaration of Independence shared a lot of similarities. The Declaration of Sentiments by feminist author Elizabeth Cady Stanton. The text outlines her ideas about gender equality, and tries to show that women deserve the same rights men do.

The document is structured in the same way as the Declaration of Independence for two important reasons. First, this was done in order to give credibility to her argument. It showed the origin of these ideas and the reason why feminists believed they were entitled to equal rights. The second reason is that the structure allowed feminists to associate their liberation movement with that of the movement for independence.

The Declaration of Sentiments parallels the Declaration of Independence by stating its purpose, declaring the actions that will be taken, outlining the natural rights of all humans and listing the grievances of both groups.
