Question

1. Give two examples of Paine’s use of opinions in “Crisis”.

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Paine expresses his opinion when he says that Britain is doing America of writing when it forces it to obey its orders. Another moment when he imposes opinion is when he says that those who are expecting kindness and grace from Britain are crazy, because it is impossible to be kind where there is no justice.

2. Paine makes strong use of Pathos, provoking readers' sentimentality. This can be seen, because at any moment he presents statements that justify the need for all Americans to help each other to defeat Great Britain, because otherwise, the suffering that the English crown would cause would fall on everyone's head, without sparing who supported or did not support the independence movements, without sparing children, the elderly, or anyone else.

3. a) Thomas Jefferson was patriotic, intelligent, imaginative and courageous.

3. b) Patrick Henry was a brillaint speaker, Thomas Jefferson was a gifted writer and George Washington was a talented military leader.
