enyata [817]

In acts 1 and 2 of Julius Caesar, Brutus is in conflict with himself.

In the soliloquy in Act 2 Scene 1 in the tragedy of Julius Caesar explains Brutus' involvement in the assassination plot against Ceasar as he thinks about the consequences if Caesar is crowned. He compares the crowning procedure of Caesar to that of the hatching of a serpent from the egg. He assumes that when Caesar would become the king of Rome he will show his cruel nature and bring destruction to the people of Rome. Hence, Brutus joins the conspiracy against Caesar in order to prevent Rome from the ambitious nature of Caesar in the coming future.

Read these quotations from Douglass' autobiography."to drink the bitterest dregs of slavery"". . .the dark night of slavery clos
Anna [14]

Answer:

The literary technique used in all three examples is <u>metaphor</u>.

Explanation:

<u>A metaphor is a figure of speech that makes an indirect comparison. </u>Unlike a simile -- a direct comparison --, which uses the support words "as" or "like", a metaphor does not use any support words. It simply states that thing A is thing B, instead of thing A is like thing B. For example:

- Your eyes are like stars. -- simile

- Your eyes are stars. -- metaphor

The purpose of a metaphor is to attribute the characteristics of one thing to another by comparing them, even if in reality they are not similar at all. When I say someone's eyes are stars,  I don't mean it literally, of course. I refer to their beautiful brightness.

<u>That is precisely what Douglass does in all three examples in the question. Slavery does not literally have bitter dregs. It is not a dark night. The vessels were not ghosts. Douglass is making these indirect comparisons to attribute characteristics of one thing to the other. On dark nights, we can feel scared, lost, hopeless. By saying slavery is a dark night, Douglass may mean slavery made him feel that way.</u>
