Although the Host demands a merry tale from the Monk, the Monk instead gives a series of cameo tragedies, all of which deal with the role of fortune in a man's life. The Monk catalogues the fickleness of Fortune through a series of abbreviated tales about such people as Lucifer, Adam, Hercules, Samson, Nero, and so on — all who were initially favored but eventually abandoned by Fortune. The Monk concludes when the Knight interrupts him and pleads for a merry tale.

Read the following passages. Identify the genre and subgenre of each excerpt, state the theme that all three share, and then com
Kaylis [27]

Passage A from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave is non-fiction, specifically autobiography. Passage B from "Song of Myself" by Walt Whitman is poetry written in the sub-genre of free verse. Passage C from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is fiction from the sub-genre of regionalism or local color. All three passages are about the importance of having freedom and hope of freedom. All passages reflect that the wrriters felt that slavery was wrong. Passage A is powerful because it is the true perspective of someone who lived as a slave. It shows how much freedom meant to Douglass. Passage B is poetry that tells a story that may or may not be true. The point of it is that the speaker in the poem treated the slave kindly and as an equal and that he trusted him as a human being and did what he could to help the man to safety. The language is spare and careful, which is where the genre's power lies. Passage C uses characters to make the point: Huck is determined to help Jim escape from slavery even though it is deemed wrong. He knows that slavery is not right, and he chooses to be "bad" rather than allow Jim to remain a slave. The power of fiction is in the situations, characterizations, and dialogue. This passage also tells a story, but it is much longer with greater detail than passage B.

How does the use of a rhetorical question advance the author's
ZanzabumX [31]

the use of a rhetorical question advances the author's purpose of showing that all people deserve freedom is discussed below:

<h3>Did Frederick Douglass want freedom?</h3>

After Douglass escaped, he wanted to promote freedom for all slaves. He published a newspaper in Rochester, New York, called The North Star. It got its name because slaves escaping at night followed the North Star in the sky to freedom.

Douglass believed that the right to liberty was a natural right, which had been clearly articulated in the Declaration of Independence. Disagreeing with Garrison, Douglass further believed that those who wrote the U.S. Constitution had intended to put slavery on a course of ultimate extinction.
