How does Black Hawk’s rhetoric in this excerpt advance his viewpoint that people are interconnected with the natural world? When

I saw that I could not beat you by Indian fighting, I determined to rush on you, and fight you face to face. I fought hard. But your guns were well aimed. The bullets flew like birds in the air, and whizzed by our ears like the wind through the trees in the winter.

He used figures of speech that directly compared all the happenings of the event with the elements of nature.

For example, he compared the speed of the fired bullets with the flight of birds in air, he also compared its sound to that of the wind that blows trees in winter. These comparisons are done using simile.

This rhetoric emphasizes the relationship man has with nature that he cannot disconnect from.

What do we learn from Jonathan and Dr. Seward’s journal entries?
True [87]

Answer:

The love which Arthur, Quincey, and Seward had for Lucy has been basely transfigured into hate at the sight of Lucy; moreover, it is somewhat surprising that these lusty men are disgusted at the abundant sensuality of Lucy, now that she is a vampire. When she approaches Arthur in her vampire form, it is with a sensual embrace. Instead of arousing passion, however, there is only a feeling of repulsion and disgust. It is clear that in her vampire form, Lucy's carnal aspect is highlighted and emphasized.

Explanation:

This novel has set the course for all subsequent vampire lore — for example, the belief that a wooden stake must be driven through the vampire's heart and that the head must be removed and the mouth stuffed with garlic. All of the numerous, subsequent treatments of the vampire legend depend on these factors.

What literary devices are used in the sentences below
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The literary device used in the first sentence is a hyperbole or exaggeration, whereas the second sentence uses an oxymoron, as further explained below.

<h3>What is a hyperbole?</h3>

A hyperbole is a literary device that exaggerates something in order to emphasize an idea. In the first sentence we are analyzing here, the hyperbole is found in "a ton of snow." The speaker wishes to emphasize the idea that there was a lot of snow on his car. However, it would be impossible for there to be indeed a ton of it.

<h3>What is an oxymoron?</h3>

The literary device known as oxymoron consists of putting together two words with opposite meanings. In the second sentence, the oxymoron is found in "genuine imitation." If something is genuine, that means it is not fake, not an imitation. So, technically, the two words do not go together.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.
