Identify the type of figurative language used by John F. Kennedy in his famous moon speech. "The greater our knowledge increases

, the greater our ignorance unfolds."
English

nadya68 [22]3 years ago

     The figurative language used in the excerpt "The greater our knowledge increases, the greater our ignorance unfolds" is the <u>paradox</u>.  

  The paradox connects in the same situation two opposite things in a construct phrase that together acquires  sense: although it seems more logical that when knowledge increases, ignorance reduces or fades away, the meaning of this sentence is that the more we know, the more we discover that yet we have much to learn; Then, the connection of the increasing knowledge with the unfolding ignorance makes sense.

A bird in a cage will be called a caged bird but Angela,the poet, wants to talk about racial equality rights.She means that black African American  people used to feel caged by American white people in the 19th century.The entire theme is metaphorical ill treatment. Black people could see white people having having a normal and prosperous life but black people had restricted freedom given to them eg they could not sit on the front seats of a bus.
