Answer:

Puritan

Explanation:

"John Brown was a leading figure in the abolitionist movement in the pre-Civil War United States. Unlike many anti-slavery activists, he was not a pacifist and believed in aggressive action against slaveholders and any government officials who enabled them. An entrepreneur who ran tannery and cattle trading businesses prior to the economic crisis of 1839, Brown became involved in the abolitionist movement following the brutal murder of Presbyterian minister and anti-slavery activist Elijah P. Lovejoy in 1837. He said at the time, “Here, before God, in the presence of these witnesses, from this time, I consecrate my life to the destruction of slavery!”"

In Passage 1, how does Queen Elizabeth I's use of parallelism reflect the purpose of her speech?

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

1. It reflected the purpose of her speech as it provided clarity for her determination to protect her kingdom against European powers/invaders.

2. The main goal of the crusades by the Europeans was to install a Catholic ruler in England and this was resisted by Queen Elizabeth 1 who wanted England to be a Protestant or Anglican state.

Explanation:

Parallelism is the use of the same grammatical structure in a text. It provides contrast and balance in the text. It also helps to establish clarity in the intentions of the writer. Queen Elizabeth 1 made good use of parallelism by providing contrasts and comparing the things she could tolerate and the ones that could not be tolerated. Her speech is made up of contrasts used in the same lines to make her points stand out and to remove any doubts in the minds of her subjects.

For example, she said that she was there as a monarch 'not for her recreation or disport but for the heat of the battle, and if necessary to die for her subjects'. This would make her intentions stand out in the hearts of her subjects.
