Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Read the following excerpt from Henry David Thoreau's "Resistance to Civil Government"

It is truly enough said that a corporation has no conscience, but a corporation of conscientious men is a corporation with a conscience.

Which of these rhetorical devices does Thoreau use here?

Answer:

Parallelism

Explanation:

We can say that Thoreau used the parallelism in the paragraph shown above. That's because he wrote phrases that, in sequence, have equivalent meanings and a grammatical pattern that makes them similar within reading. This allows an idea to be highlighted and intensified during the reading of the text.

A universal theme illustrated in this text is that of
Eduardwww [97]

A. the effects of violence.  I believe this is correct. The speech I am reading is a Ceremony for the War Dead , it mentions the effects of war a lot.

B. the difficulty of change.  Although he mentions change, the theme is no the difficulty of change, maybe the necessity.

C. the quest for knowledge.  In his speech there is no mention of the quest for knowledge.

D. the struggle for meaning. I do not see anything that mentions a struggle for meaning.

As you can see from above, the answer should be A.

Have a great day! :)
