Answer 1

Answer:

1. In Donald Giones’s “Let the Sleeping Dogs Lie,” I think it is a beautiful piece of a political satire that was warning the defiant political class about the impending dangers of the political situation of 1960, which could lead to series of murder if ignited.  

1. Discuss whether you think his position is convincing? Yes his position is convincing because it was a narrative to inform shrewd politicians about the readiness of the youths to stir the tranquility of the society if provoked.  

Explanation:

However, for a deeper understanding of Giones's satiric narratives, it will be germane to know that a Satire Essay involves a form of writing in which satire is used to make fun of a subject. Devices such as hyperboles and ironies were used by Giones to get his point across to his target audience.

I think he did a splendid job of driving his point, but trying to convince people to become renegades was pretty difficult if not impossible. For such a group to be jocular is being trivial.  Giones's in the narrative expedition of his political clime was deep and evolving using active voices.

Invariably, his involvement in the war helped his narrative to supply an active participant’s view of the precarious situation. He chose to be satiric to sooth the volatile situation before the restive youths to quell the volcanic situation.

Answer 2

Answer: It is Convincing

Explanation:The satire kept people's attention, rather than just writing lengthy words that have little or no consequence.

Instead of just being serious, the person writing the satire tries to add humor in order to make it more interesting and attractive.

He actually did a good job of proving his point, but trying to convince people to abandon or fail to follow the tenets of their own beliefs is difficult such a person will generally view it as being offensive. and satire can be offensive.

Generally, I think Goines's narrative essay was good as it gives a deeper meaning and understanding to the topic and first person,it was made up of the appropriate diction etc.
