What are the purposes of King's allusions?
ANEK [815]

The purpose of Martin Luther King's allusions in his speech are "to evoke images of other freedom fighters" and "to illustrate that some laws are unjust."

<h3>What is allusion?</h3>

Allusion is a type of figurative language and rhetorical device. It consists of mentioning someone or something that is well known in order to emphasize an idea or convey an image. For example, if you wish to emphasize the idea of kindness and generosity, you can allude to the Good Samaritan from the Bible, a character who is well known for having such qualities.

In Martin Luther King's speech "I Have a Dream," many allusions are made. One of them, for example, is an allusion to President Lincoln. After reading the speech, we can find two purposes for those allusions:

  • to evoke images of other freedom fighters.
  • to illustrate that some laws are unjust.

By making allusions, thus, King makes his speech more persuasive and evokes ideas about freedom and laws. We can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.

lubasha [3.4K]

The lines in the poem “Astrophil and Stella” which indicates that the poetic speaker is hopelessly in love are:

1. “And pleas’d with our soft peace, stayed here his flying race.”

2. “Where with most ease and warmth he might employ his art:”

3. “Deceiv’d the quaking boy, who thought from so pure light”

4. “But she most fair, most cold, made him thence take his flight To my close heart, where while some firebrands he did lay,”

5. “He burnt un’wares his wings, and cannot fly away.”

Sir Phillip Sydney wrote the sequence of sonnets “Astrophil and Stella” which has been inspired by his relationship with Lady Penelope. It is a sequence of poems which marks the development of Astrophil's love for Stella. He is deeply in love with Stella and describes her beauty, intelligence, and wisdom in the sonnets.
