The correct answer is: The image shows the impressive potential of a just society.

Indeed, the lines come from his 1963 I have a dream speech: “But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.”

The imagery lies on very Western, Judeo-Christian imagery: royalty, nobility, monarchy. Dr. King was a very educated man. The metaphor of a threshold is related to the notion of the heavenly Jerusalem. However this Jerusalem is not only religious but political, it is the America that is yet to be. This Jerusalem is imperfect because it keeps a part of its own people outside of it, in the cold. This is also a very gospel theme, as African-Americans saw themselves as the new Jews who were looking to go back to their Holy Land.

Also, the palace image helps to convey the idea that African Americans had been oppressed by a monarchic regime, which had the power of life and death over them. Masterfully, King draws a parallel between racial and class injustice; and the notion is also historical: America became a free country after breaking with a tyrannical monarch. In this manner King reminds Americans that slavery was a betrayal of the principles of the American Revolution.

Explain how the organizational structure of “The Last Lecture” supports Pausch’s purpose for delivering the lecture.
Ede4ka [16]

<u>Answer:</u>

  • ‘The Last Lecture’, this book written by Randy Pausch will be read by generations to come.
  • It is a story of Randy Pausch himself who was a professor at an University in Pittsburgh.
  • In that university there’s a kind of tradition where professors of that University are told to give a lecture and assume it as if it is the Last lecture of their life. But for Randy, he didn’t even need to assume this, because it was certainly the Last lecture of his life because he was suffering from terminal cancer and he didn’t had much time left.
  • So in a way the organization purpose of Last lecture supported Pausch’s purpose for delivering the lecture, where he gave some of the best life adivces and words of wisdom from his life experience.
