How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation?

Heaney incorporates Old English poetry elements in his modern translation through punctuation. In Old English poetry, one often used half-lines. This means that each line of poetry was split into two half-lines, and in each of these half-lines there were two strongly stressed words, often with the purpose of giving musicality to the poem. Heaney follows this half-line pattern in his modern translation.

Now that you’ve read Susan B. Anthony’s “On Women's Right to Vote,” write a personal reflection about the speech. Use what you’v

Lyrx [107]

In November 1872, Anthony voted in the presidential election. Two weeks later, she was arrested. After her indictment, Anthony gave her famous On Womens Right to Vote speech. In the speech, Anthony invoked the preamble to the U.S. Constitution, pointing out that it addresses We, the people, and not We, the male citizens. She argued that those countries that denied women the right to vote were oligarchies. At the end, she challenged her detractors to answer this question: Are women persons?

During her trial, Anthony was unable to testify on her behalf, since womens testimony was not considered to be competent. Instead, her lawyer presented her arguments. She was convicted of casting an illegal vote and fined $100. Anthony refused to pay the fine, stating, May it please your honor, I will never pay a dollar of your unjust penalty. Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God.

Ymorist [56]

Answer: The appeal made in this sentence is a logical appeal.

Explanation:

A logical appeal is a persuasive technique which is based on evidence. In this sentence, the statement made was based on a study published in the Wall Street Journal. The results of this study, therefore, represent evidence. According to Aristotle, apart from logical appeals, there are two other methods of persuasion - emotional appeals and ethical appeals.
