Answer:

Frederick Douglass and Trevor Noah used their personal memoirs to give an insight into how life was like for them to be alive, fighting for their freedom and securing their life. Their personal stories make it easy to relate to the very same people who were used to being discriminated against or subjugated.

Explanation:

Frederick Douglass was an African American man born into slavery. He was passed on from one master to another, during the course of which he also learned to read and write. Later on, he escaped and bought his own freedom, then became an abolitionist to help his fellow African-American people from the clutches of slavery. His book "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave" details his life of being a slave and how he escaped and became free.

Trevor Noah, a comedian is a mixed-race child, born of a black woman and a white man during the Apartheid in South Africa. The government had criminalized mixed-race births, thus making his birth a crime. So, his book "Born A Crime" gives a glimpse of what it was like for him and his mother to survive the system that is against them.

Both Frederick Douglass and Trevor Noah wrote about their life experiences during the very system that is against their existence. Their personal narration about the events and their struggles gave the readers an idea of how it was like to try to find safety and freedom in a land that works to diminish and destroy them. Their books make it easy for people with similar experiences to relate to and gave them encouragement in their struggles.  Both books tell a story of survival, perseverance and the will to overcome the obstacles.

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Realism was an artistic movement that began in France in the 1850s, following the 1848 Revolution. Realists rejected Romanticism, which had dominated French literature and art since the late 18th century, revolting against the exotic subject matter and exaggerated emotionalism of the movement.
