Answer:
A. The major premise in Elizabeth's declaration differed from that of Jefferson's in that,
1. she replaced the statement "all men are created equal" to the statement, "all men and women are created equal".
2. The aim of the Declaration of Rights and Sentiments as stated in her document was not to "alter or abolish" an oppressive government, but rather it was to "refuse allegiance" to it.
B. The purpose of this document was to discuss the rights of women in the American society.
Explanation:
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott organized a convention in New York in 1848 for the purpose of discussing the rights of women. There, they formulated the Declaration of Rights and Sentiments which was similar to the Declaration of Independence developed by Thomas Jefferson and some others and which was ratified in 1776. The two documents were similar in the use of categorical syllogism in that they both followed a major premise, a minor premise, and a conclusion.
The major premises differed in the ways stated above. In the minor premise, while the Declaration of Independence stated 26 ays in which the British government was oppressive while the Stanton's Declaration lists 16 ways women's rights were abused. Conclusively, the Declaration of Rights sought the right of the United States of America to form its own government, while the Declaration of Rights and Sentiments sought the rights and privileges of women as citizens of the United States.
