Answer:
wiglaf's speech is an attempt to remind the other ten retainers of the honor code of comitatus and to shame them into action. In this system, a lord or king offers protection to his retainers (or thanes) and supports them with a share of bo-oty, gifts, and even land.
Explanation:
Answer:
The first uses dialogue and character; the second uses first-person point of view.
Explanation:
The first excerpt is found in Chapter Eight titled "September 2nd, 1973" from <em>Fever 1793</em> by Laurie Halse Anderson is based on the yellow fever epidemic that ravaged Philadelphia. The story is from the point of view of the young Mattie Cook, describing how the pandemic had destroyed the lives of the people.
The second excerpt is from <em>The Summer of the Pestilence</em> by George Dodd Armstrong. The book also deals with the history of the same yellow fever that not only affected Philadelphia but also other parts of the nation such as Virginia.
While both books deal with the same pandemic, their dealing with the issue of unprecedented deaths differ a bit. The first book uses a dialogue-conversation approach, with the characters greatly involved whereas the second book uses the first person point of view to address the deaths. These two books may deal with the same issue but their approaches of the deaths and sick people differ such that their narrative plots also differ.

1. The phrase that directly states the purpose of the Declaration of Independence is "declare the causes". That is precisely what this document did - it declared the causes for American people to break loose of British colonialism and domination, and to claim their political independence and self-determination.
2. The theme of this passage is best described as: "the British legislature extended an unwarranted jurisdiction over the colonies". The British colonial politics have transcended the boundaries, endangering the Americans' right to self-governance. That is precisely why the Americans wanted to become independent.
3. These lines are an example of ethos. Jefferson uncovers a deep ethical problem that is the basis of the British domination <span>of </span>America. He says that Americans had petitioned (therefore, they had made formal requests, they had tried all the peaceful procedures), but instead of being answered, they had suffered an even greater oppression. His conclusion that such a prince is a tyrant is ethical in nature.
4. These lines are an example of a thesis. He proclaims that they are declaring freedom and independence, so this is a thesis that needs to be explained, argued, expounded - which the document does further below. This statement is a premise which has yet to be proved with facts and arguments.
5. I believe these lines are an example of pathos. He says that people are prone to tolerating their own suffering, in order not to change the situation they are accustomed to. Pathos, as a rhetorical technique, is supposed to provoke an emotional reaction with the listeners/readers. In this case, the audience would identify with the sufferers from the passage, but would also get scared that their suffering might not come to an end. This emotional reaction is supposed to provoke action and support for Jefferson's ideas.
