PLEASE HELP ASAP!We have been studying literature with a purpose. We have read selections in which the authors make a statement or express an opinion about certain aspects of society and/or culture. They use their words to educate readers, but also to influence audiences and effect change.
Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote “Letter from Birmingham Jail” with a purpose. He wanted to correct misconceptions about, and defend his belief in, nonviolent resistance to racism and oppression.
He directed it to a very specific audience; the white clergymen who criticized his actions. He used persuasive language and rhetorical devices to effectively influence his audience.

Thoroughly answer the following questions about Dr. King’s letter.

1. King had to communicate the right tone in order to earn the attention of his audience. By using direct address, he was able to do this.
What is a direct address?
How did Dr. King employ this strategy?
What effect did it have?


2. King uses many allusions (a reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance) in the letter.
Choose 1 allusion King uses that is likely to be most effective with King’s audience. Quote the allusion below and explain why you feel is it likely to be the most effective.


3. Authors use words to provoke, to inspire and/or to calm. King does all of these in his letter. Which of these do you think his letter most accomplishes and why? Provide textual support/quotes to support your response.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

In his letter from Birmingham jail, Martin Luther King tried to persuade the audience that his non violence belief is a good move to act against racism and oppression.

1. King directly addresses the audience which shows the clarity in his views and actions. He out across his points making several relative points and people understood them clearly and his letter got a lot of attention.

2. King used many allusions to prove his point. An allusion is used by an author referring something in his work to some historic or literary, or cultural details from outside the work. He took instances from Bible, stating what Jesus had preached. He also referred to Mahatma Gandhi who also believed in non violence and India got Independence. All these allusions are very effective as they convince the audience in proving his point as right.

3. King used his words to inspire people the most. It inspired the African-Americans to fight against the whites for their freedom. He said "We will reach the goal of freedom in Birmingham and all over the nation, because the goal of America is freedom". He also gives them hope that things are on their side and they will achieve their goals.
