Read this excerpt from “Ain’t I a Woman?” by Sojourner Truth. In which sentences does she make an emotional appeal to the audien

ce by talking about her personal hardships?
Well, children, where there is so much racket there must be something out of kilter. I think that 'twixt the negroes of the South and the women at the North, all talking about rights, the white men will be in a fix pretty soon. But what's all this here talking about?

That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman? Look at me! Look at my arm! I have ploughed and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me! And ain't I a woman? I could work as much and eat as much as a man - when I could get it - and bear the lash as well! And ain't I a woman? I have borne thirteen children, and seen most all sold off to slavery, and when I cried out with my mother's grief, none but Jesus heard me! And ain't I a woman?

Then they talk about this thing in the head; what's this they call it? [member of audience whispers, "intellect"] That's it, honey. What's that got to do with women's rights or negroes' rights? If my cup won't hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, wouldn't you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?

What does the candle symbolize in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich?
MAXImum [283]

The candle symbolizes Ilyich’s approaching death in the above excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s “The Death of Ivan Ilyich.”

At the end of the novella “The Death of Ivan IIyich,” written by Leo Tolstoy speaks about the materialistic nature of the physical world. At the time of his death, Ivan says “ Death is finished, he said to himself. It is no more!” This line gives an insight into his perspective about life and death.

It shows that Ivan continues to fight for his life and gives the plot an open ending.

For Ivan death has caused an end of his life in this physical world but this has rewarded him a path towards spiritual world.

His death not just gives an end to the story but also a beginning of a new life and story of Ivan.
