What is fallacious about the implied argument?

1 answer:

7 0

An implied argument is an argument which leaves us to draw the supposedly obvious conclusion for ourselves. Where an assumption on which the argument depends is not stated it is not readily available for scrutiny and therefore the fact that it is questionable or false can easily escape our attention. Similarly where a conclusion remains unstated the questionable connection between it and the reasons given for it remains out of view and may thus escape our critical appraisal. The problem with implied arguments therefore is that they involve a sort of mental sleight of hand that can fool us.

How was feminism shown in the poem the man from snowy river

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Feminism is shown in the poem "The man from snowy river" when Jessica was unable to constantly stay in the house and learn to serve as a lady, She wants more than just tea parties or shoe shining like the typical women in the poem but she wants to work with the men.

Explanation:

Jessica believes she has the ability to work like a man can and that she is equal to them, for instance she wanted to work in the barn like the men, but her father disapproves of that and instead drags her out of the barn and told her to follow the conventional path like the women there.

Her father Harrison tells her that working in the barn is not an occupation for a lady and that she should think of marriage, but Jessica did not bow down to her father's will but instead argues with him on the ground of equality depicting feminism in the poem.
