"My literary agenda begins by acknowledging that America has transformed me. It does not end until I show how I (and the hundreds of thousands like me) have transformed America."

This is showing that she is not going to fall into the request of literary critics and theorists to only write about India and the persecution of Indian women. She does not want to fall into their stereotypes.

Part A Read these sentences from Paragraph 3 of the passage. What he most loved, that I most hated. That which to him was a grea

klemol [59]

Hello there!

Part A.

Connotative meaning is the emotional or cultural meaning that you give to a certain term. In the narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, the connotative meaning that the author gives to the word "warmly" in the second sentence should be "quietly and seriously".

Argument: Since Mrs. Auld does not know how to treat a slave -because she has never had a slave before- wants to teach Douglass how to read. She assumes that he is warmly urged to learn, but nobody hears him screaming for a better life.

Part B.

The effect that the author uses within the word "warmly" in this passage is that Mr. Auld feels strongly that Douglass should not learn to read.

Argument: When Mr. Auld notices that his wife is teaching Douglass how to read, he gives her a lesson. He said to her that teaching a slave how to read is forbidden and illegal, and he stands out the point that if slaves start knowing the basics such as reading, they would not want to be slaves anymore and people like them -Mr. and Mrs. Auld- would not have servitude.
