Why is Paine's use of aphorisms effective for his purpose and audience?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Paine uses a number of aphorisms to introduce his argument. By doing so, he captures the audience allowing them to take to means these brief witty statements on a personal level. “The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph,” quoted Paine. By stating a number of aphorisms, he was able to hint the audience of what is to come throughout his copy. For instance, “These are the times that try men’s souls.” This makes the reader wonder and ask themselves certain questions that are later answered through the text. The aphorisms also leave room for a various number of interpretations that may all be accurate; “What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly.” Through the aphorisms used in the introduction of Paine’s work, the audience is able to get a sense of the tone of the narrative.
