Answer:

America´s literary heritage

Explanation:

From the Colonial Period (17th century) and Early National Period to the Romantic Period (1830- 1870) to Realism and Naturalism (1870-1910) to the Modernist Period (1910-1945), they all contributed in some way or another to the Contemporary Period in literature, that reflected the social upheaval that acompanied the contemporary and all the other socio-political periods of America.

There is no such thing as a typical American writing style.

The core values (like the natural rights of people) do play a significant role but they don´t determine American literature.

America´s leadership or hegemony is a fact but it doesn´t make its literature consistent.

in at least one hundred words, identify three persuasive language techniques that Gandhi used in this speech and discuss their e
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:  

1. Cathartic (arousal of emotions)

2. Self-purification

3. Logic and harmony in thoughts.        

Explanation: Gandhi was a leader, mentor, and an authority in himself. His ideals are still being used for reference. The way he used to drive the audience mad through his impressive speech pattern and techniques to follow his principles is miraculous. His impressive speech pattern and techniques used to connect to the audience via arousing their emotions (Cathartic in Aristotelian term) as the subjects of his speech are more often dominated by the personal experiences and talks about morality, truth, non-violence, harmony, etc. These subjects developed a sense of credibility and authenticity among the audience towards him. Lastly, <em>his ideals were quite logical and reasonable which made his speech very persuasive in nature</em> and thus, he was successful in delivering his message to his audience's mind and heart throughout.

Drag each tile to the correct box. Which type of context clue will help define each underlined word? definition clue synonym clu
vodomira [7]

Answer:

1. Dion noticed that the campsite location was obscure (remote). - synonym clue

2. Pia couldn't wait to visit the menagerie—the place where the animals were kept. - definition clue

3. Unlike her last dog, who didn't know the meaning of loyalty, Violet's new dog is a staunch friend. - antonym clue

Explanation:

In sentence 1, we are literally given the synonym of the word in parentheses. The author guesses the word "obscure" might be unknown to some readers and decides to offer another word that carries the same meaning as it - a synonym - to help clarify. That is why the word "remote" is added right after "obscure".

In sentence 2, the author chose to define or explain the word "menagerie", almost like a dictionary would. He/she adds a dash after the word to then include the definition. We now know that a menagerie is the place where animals were kept.

Finally, in sentence 3, we can figure out the meaning of "staunch" by comparing it to the word "loyalty". Two dogs are being compared. One does not understand loyalty. The other one, however, is staunch. We can safely assume the latter is loyal, faithful, because of such a comparison. What the author did here was use words that have opposite meanings - antonyms - to reveal the meaning of the unknown word.
