Answer: B. to present the author's opinion that Brown is to be admired for his inspirational actions.

In this excerpt, Emerson refers to Brown as a hero. This fits the theme of his text, as he is writing in defense of Brown, who was imprisoned for leading a slave rebellion. By calling him hero, Emerson implicitly tells us what his opinion on Brown is. This is also a way to persuade people to think of Brown as a hero, and not as a criminal.
