The contradictions that can be found in Douglass's mistress are related to her behavior towards slaves.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Mrs. Auld was one of Douglass' mistresses.
  • She was a very kind and benevolent to slaves.
  • This behavior was very favorable and admired by Douglass.
  • However, she began to show contradictory behavior towards slaves.
  • She started to become an angry and violent person with the slaves, which completely contradicted her behavior in the past.

Douglass explains this shift as a normal part of the devastating nature of slavery. According to him, slavery caused the suffering of blacks, while corrupting the humanity of whites.

This question is about the book "My Bondage and My Freedom."

gregori [183]

Answer: A. They suggest that a ruler who is feared can retain power, while a ruler who is hated is less likely to do so.

Explanation:

<em>The Prince</em> is a book from the 16th century, written by the Italian political theorist Niccolò Machiavelli.

In this particular excerpt, Machiavelli insists that the prince should inspire fear and not the hatred. The fear allows the prince to govern, but hatred can only compromise his position. Therefore, the prince should not take away property. If he does so, people will hate him. On the other hand, he can take life, but should not kill people without proper reasons.
