Personal letters, even ones such as Wheatley's that were later published in

History

garik1379 [7]3 years ago

The distinguishing factor between <em>Philis Wheatley's and Abigail Adam's</em> letters from the rhetoric of Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, and Thomas Paine is the humility in their tone.

They were <em>praying, begging, and imploring men</em> to match their words with their actions.  They urged freedom fighters to remember those who suffered neglect in the fight for freedom. For example, Wheatley used an occasion of her personal letter to Rev. Occum to point out <em>"the contradiction between the colonists' demands for freedom from Britain and the colonists' determination to uphold black slavery"</em> in their backyards.

Abigail Adams also urged her husband, John Adams, that the American male politicians then clamoring for freedom should not forget the freedom deserved by women. In her reasoning, America cannot claim victory over British oppression when the men were not ready to extend the same rights to their wives, mothers, and sisters, and by implication, the slaves.

The rhetoric of <em>Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, and Thomas Jefferson </em>showed that they were <em>only interested in gaining </em><em>freedom</em><em> for the white men</em>. They also showed that <em>women had low regard</em>. Women during those years were homemakers with only bedroom voices.

Thus, the personal letters of Philis Wheatley and Abigail Adams show the low place accorded women by American Founding Fathers.  There was no single Founding Mother among the crowd!

What are the beliefs of Jean paul Marat??? (Will Mark BRAINLIEST for correct answer)
Aliun [14]
Marat’s political career, minus his obvious political journalism, is very controversial, as expected of a radical leader. Although Marat was a deputy at the National Convention, a member of the Committee of Public Safety and an Adviser for the First Paris Commune, he had been arrested numerous times and had to flee France more than once due to his involvement with the Jacobin party. His name was nominated for a position in the legislative body, which lead to resistance from the Girondin party, which Marat would end up crushing in June of 1793.35 Considering the Girondin party was on the right, after their defeat the Jacobins dominated. Conversely, his colleagues did not always respect Marat; his disease-ridden body created poor aromas and many would not go near him.36 There was a long-standing opposition between Danton and Marat, historian Sarel Eimerl claims on the basis of jealousy possessed by Marat. The people of Paris however, were unconditional with Marat, to them he was a hero, and with the people behind him his status was upheld.
