Douglass uses rhetorical appeals like pathos in this chapter to make us understand how horrible the times of slavery were by hitting deep in our emotions. Douglass uses vivid imagery when describing some of the things they had to experience as a slave like when someone got shot, “his mangled body sank out of sight, and blood and brains marked the water where he had stood” (38). Or when he describes the killing of his mother’s cousin, that the slave owner “[broke] her nose and breastbone with a stick, so that the poor girl expired in a few hours afterward” (39). By describing these very gory scenes that he had to witness or hearing about, he gets us to show epathy for those who suffered in slavery.

Violence and power connects to this chapter as it talks about how people that lived in the Great House Farm can whip slaves as much as they want to, even if there is no reason at all. It also talks about Colonel Lloyds wealth which is why he has so many slaves and a lot of power.

Pathos - "perfect loneliness; thus virtually turning her out to die! If my poor old grandmother now lives, she lives to suffer in utter loneliness; she lives to remember and mourn over the loss of children, the loss of grandchildren, and the loss of greatgrandchildren"

Patho --> Douglass promotes sadness and sympathy from the audience through describing his Grandmother's loneliness.

."I nevertheless made the change gladly; for I was sure getting enough to eat, which is not the smallest consideration to a hungry man"(34). Pathos is represented through this quote by Frederick stating his joy and how glad he is to make the decision to leave the crazy inhumane place he was at. There was also a tone of relief when he was speaking about leaving the place that was known to "break young slaves". - T'Anna G

¨The children were then called, like so many pigs, and like so many pigs they would come  and devour the  mush; some with oyster shells, others with pieces of shingle, some with naked hands, and none with spoons¨ (Douglass 16). In this section Douglass appeals to pathos because he recalls how dehumanizing slavery is being that the children are treated like farm animals. -KB

An example of Irony can be found on page 31, in "A great many times have we poor creatures been nearly perishing with hunger, when food in abundance lay mouldering in the safe and smoke-house". Although it's not very strong irony and doesn't fully contribute, it shows how even though these slaveholders had complete ability to feed their enslaved individuals they chose not to. -Griffin W

Douglass uses pathos in this chapter to convey the sorrows of slaves and the cruelty of their situations, which clearly appeals to the emotions of the reader. Douglass writes that "the singing of a man cast away upon a desolate island might be as appropriately considered as evidence of contentment and happiness, as the singing of a slave; the songs of the one and of the other are prompted by the same emotion" (Douglass page 9). In this quote, Douglass is comparing the emotions slaves feel to the emotions that a man stranded on an island feels. This helps to convey how slaves have nothing to feel joy about, and tying it back to our chapter title, they only feel sorrow in their situation, just like a man stranded alone on an island. - Addison

The title : Original suggests an introduction which the first chapter serves to satisfy. The idea of the sin comes with the beating and dehumanization of Aunt Hester, as well as the Douglass's deprivation of identity.

Rhetorical Appeal : Logos
"Slave holders have ordained, and by law established, that children  of slave women shall in all cases follow the condition of their mothers" (Douglass 2).
-It was a customary routine for slaveholders to enslave the children of slaves they bought. This is rooted in fact and the logic of the slaveholders, though that does not remain true for those looking back on the situation.-Ellanie

That is the title because the chapter talks about how it was hard for Frederick to understand the songs at first because they would sing happy songs in a sad tone and sad songs in a happy tone which was confusing to him.

Douglass uses Pathos on page 33, from "I have seen him tie up... her being almost helpless", describing a horrible bloody event that took place many times on the plantation he then worked on, using extreme imagery to make the reader understand the horrors and terrible nature of Slavery and what came with it. -Griffin W

Mr. Auld didn't want Douglass to read and prevented Mrs. Auld from teaching anymore literature to Douglass. This inspired Douglass to carry on and find more ways to learn how to read, "inspiring him with a desire and determination to learn" (Douglass 20); even if Mrs. Auld couldn't teach him. If Mr. Auld wasn't so against allowing Douglass to read. Douglass wouldn't have had to motivation as he did before; now Douglass knows that literature is power.

Freedom is shown in this chapter through the songs that the slaves sung. By singing these songs together, the slaves were able to create a sense of freedom in themselves, which they yearned to have. The use of pathos and singing sorrowful songs represented how the slaves did not have freedom and were devastated inside. -Emily

Mr. Covey is an example of the dehumanization of slavery because of what Douglass said his reputation was. Mr. Covey was known for being a "nigger-breaker" because they said that he would "break young slaves" since he could have slaves of any age(34). -T'Anna G

These chapter relates more to the them of  dehumanization of slavery. "I was immediately sent for value with other property (page 27). Fredrick Douglass was sent to be sold off like he was property this proves the dehumanization of the slaves. The slaves are like property and they do not have a say in anything they are just sold off. -Mou

The title should be literature is power because Douglass spends the chapter focusing on literature because he has came to the realization that it give slaves control and power they have never had before. Mr Auld even goes out of the way to prevent Douglass from reading as it give slaves too much power. Quote: if you teach that nigger  how to read, there would be no keeping him. It would forever unfit him to be a slave"(Chapter 6 page 29(pdf))

ANECDOTE-
On page 4 of Narrative of The Life of Frederick Douglass. Douglass explains one of the traumatic scenes he's witnessed as a slave working under Colonel Lloyd. He explains in great detail (imagery) of the experiences his aunt faced under Colonel Lloyd.

"I remember the first time I ever witnessed this horrible exhibition. I was quite a child, but I well remember it." (4)
Here, Douglass poses credibility for the anecdote.

"The louder she screamed, the harder he whipped; and where the blood ran fastest..." (4)
Here, Douglass goes into detail of Aunt Hester's beating.

Douglass uses pathos when describing how the slave owners treated his grandmother after they decided theat she was no longer useful/profitable. For her whole life, she had to deal with their "base ingraditude and fiendish barbarity" (pg. 28) and when she finally reached the point where her body would longer allow her to do the intense labor that she had done for her entire life, they left her alone to die in a hut "in perfect loneliness" (pdf pg. 42). The language that Douglass used is an example of pathos because it causes the reader to feel deep sympathy for his grandmother who lived a hard life and had a difficult death. -shiloh

This chapter could connect to freedom and the dehumanization of slavery. This adds onto this idea because Lucretia wasn't treated like a human at all and was instead treated like a scum of the earth. It can also add onto freedom because dying was a way for slaves to even feel free or be at peace. -Ryen R

he children were called, like so many pigs, and like so many pigs would come and devour the mush¨ (Douglass 16). This same quote also serves as a simile because these enslaved children are being compared to pigs, and the food they receive can be called nothing other than ¨mush¨. -KB

There is a huge disparity in the way that people of color and white people are treated both by the law and by society.

This initial chapter details how slaves were treated daily, they were isolated from family, beaten over and over with pleasure, and with little motivation. Douglass details how he had seen his mother momentarily but still felt no real connection to her. "I received the tidings of her death with much the same emotions I should have probably felt at the death of a stranger" (Douglass 2). We get the first showing of the cruelty exhibited by overseers with Mr. Plummer. As when Aunt Hester was late at sunrise he brutally mutilated and beat her.

Freedom is a theme that directly connects to this chapter because Douglass sees literature as the best pathway to freedom. Reading can teach slaves about the world around them which destroys the idea that white people are smarter than black people which is used as a justification for slavery.

A literacy device we saw was chiasmus when Frederick Douglass is describing how he heard the songs. ”They would sometimes sing the most pathetic sentiment in the most rapturous tone, and the most rapturous sentiment in the most pathetic tone” (Page 8).

¨At times, he spoke to his slaves with the firmness of Napoleon and the fury of a demon; at other times,

he might well be mistaken for an inquirer who had lost his way.¨ The first portion before the semicolon is a simile because it compares Auld to Napoleon and a demon to emphasize how terrible he can be. On the other side of the semicolon, Douglass does also tell about another side of Auld that doesn resemble a slaveowner at all. -Brianna
