1. What Contrasts and Contradictions do you notice in the behavior of Douglass’s mistress? How does Douglass explain the change

in her character?

Pachacha [2.7K]3 years ago

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."

Compare the characters of Hedda Gabler and Daisy Miller: A Study. Both are the inventions of realist writers, but which is more
Dennis_Churaev [7]

In my view Hedda Gabbler is the most morally ambiguous between the two. Allow me to compare the two characters in order to clarify my views. Hedda Gabbler is an older Norwegian housewife of upper-*Middle class who chose to marry because she was starting to grow older. Her motivations are not always clear and sometimes it seems as though she suffers some kind of mental illness. Also, the etymology of her name is quite revelatory, her name comes from " the Germanic name Hadewig, derived from the Germanic elements hadu "battle, combat" and wig "war" (https://www.behindthename.com/name/hedwig). Hedda is obviously in conflict with the patriarchal society of her time and she aims to not only be in command of her own destiny but also to control her husband. She kills herself in order to deny the power of a man over her. Even in her death she is defiant. Daisy Miller on the other hand is a very young adult and rich American who loves Europe and its ways. She is naive and innocent and her behavior is not as vindictive as the behavior of Hedda Gabbler. Daisy is in opposition to the conservative and patriarchal views of society more because of her exposition ot European cultures and less due to a conscious realization of her condition. Her name is the name of a flower and her death is also symbolic as she dies from malaria. Flowers die during winter and Daisy's winter is the disease that kills her. She is more a victim than a proto-feminist.

Which quote from the story best supports the idea that Lena wants Sammy to believe he is contributing to the family?
slavikrds [6]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to identify the quote you need, reading each quote, however, as you want a quote where Lena convinces Sammy that he is contributing to the family, we must consider that the correct answer is the quote where Lenna presents the good things that Sammy did for the family and how it has helped the family in different situations. You should look for the quote that looks something like this, to answer that question.
