  • The rethorical technique used in this excerpt from Thomas Paine's <em>Common Sense </em>is Allusion<em>.</em>
  • Allusion in writing is used to refer to something, such as a person or an event, in an <u>indirect</u> way.
  • Paine makes an allusion to the <u>New Testament in the Christian Bible:</u> When he writes <em>"ye that oppose independence now ye know what ye do"</em>, he recalls the reader the time Jesus said (before dying on the cross): "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do". He meant that the people who condemned him didn't know that he was the Son of God.
  • To sum up, Paine recalls this moment in Christian history so as to show the reader the seriousness of what it means for society to remain under the rule of George III.

Which turns out to be more important: the similarities or the differences between Martin and his great-grandfather?
loris [4]

The differences between Martin and his grandfather turned out to be more important within the story.

<h3>Who are Martin and his grandfather?</h3>
  • Martin's grandfather is a Native American.
  • He is very attached to traditions.
  • Martin is a boy born and raised within American culture.
  • He is not linked to traditions, even with his grandfather.

Martin and his grandfather see traditions very differently mainly because of the culture in which they were raised. This difference is very important to establish the plot because while the grandfather insists on passing the Medicine Bag to Martin, he is indifferent and even embarrassed.

This question is about the story "The Medicine Bag" and you can find more information about this story at the link:

Do you follow along with the news-either local, global or culture? Why or why not? 4 sentences
stepan [7]

Answer:

I do not follow along with news wether local or global culture. Because, almost most of the time the media just petrays the negative side of the world. And it can be difficult to decipher what is always negative or if they are just pertaying one part, but it is mostly positive. There is so much more to this world then negative, and to put your mind in a state where your just watching and reading someone elses opinion, without actualy seeing both sides <em>can</em> be unhealthy.

Hope this helps!!

Hope this helped. Have a great day!
