But the whole business of slavery is an evil of the first magnitude, and a most horrible iniquity to traffic with slaves and sou

ls of men; and an evil, sorry I am, that it still subsists, and more astonishing to think, that it is an iniquity committed amongst Christians, and contrary to all the genuine principles of Christianity, and yet carried on by men denominated thereby. –Thoughts and Sentiments on the Evil and Wicked Traffic of the Slavery and Commerce of the Human Species, Quobna Ottobah Cugoano What belief does Cugoano explicitly state in the passage?

Answer:

His discontent with slavery

Explanation:

As an African abolitionist, Ottobah Cugoano was against all forms of slavery. His point resides in the fact that Christians themselves were trading slaves, ever since the time when the holy scriptures had been written. That was a period of time in human history when slavery was commonplace and not as frowned upon. However, various principles found in the Bible provide enough evidence to show they believed the exact opposite and, therefore, the sole duty of slaves is to escape from their dire situation.

Who is the hero or protagonist in Jorinda and Joringel and what actions define that character as the hero?
ollegr [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Let's divide that question into two so that we can answer it more easily.

Who is the hero or protagonist in Jorinda and Joringel?

The hero in the fairy tale is Joringel.

What actions define that character as the hero?

The hero in a fairy tale is often young, handsome, intelligent, strong, and brave. He is the one who defeats the antagonist, often a witch or a wizard who, for no reason whatsoever, enjoys imprisoning people and spreading evil. It is also common for the hero to have a special power or weapon that can help him destroy the antagonist and live happily ever after.

<u>That is precisely why Joringel is the hero. He is a young, handsome man who happens to be in love. His fiancée, Jorinda, is taken by an evil witch. For some unexplainable reason, Joringel dreams of a flower that has the power to defeat the witch and bring back Jorinda. He finds that flower, defeats the awful witch, and lives happily ever after. As we can see, his fits the mold (beauty, courage, special weapon, victory, happiness).</u>
