The Declaration of Independence was a very famous document that was
written in 1776. In this document the colonies tried to gain freedom
from the mother country of England. The introduction explains to the
rest of the world the reasons why the colonies wanted to revolt against
the rule of England. The body of the document goes over the list of
grievances and the reasons for their revolt against England. The
conclusion simply consists of the signers and the pledges of The
Declaration of Independence. Within this document is a wide variety of
persuasive writing including repetition of key points, parallel
structure, and biblical allusions.
First off is repetition of key points, this is a great form of writing
to get a point out by the use of repetition. Jefferson’s first example
of repetition is, “He has refused…He has Forbidden…He has refused…He
has” (Jefferson 138). In this example he represents the colonies, and
the repetition is explaining the struggle that the colony is going
through. The repetition used in this gets out the point of the ongoing
struggle of each individual thing that happens. </span>
