Declaration Of Independence

Purpose & Audience
    1.) His major premise is the fact that the ruler treated them like crap, and its about time they become independent.
    2.) By saying they have tried to logically fight the oppression of the king, but have been turned down every time when they tried to petition. 
    3.) Jefferson is talking to the citizens of america, to persuade them that the previous ruler could not support their community needs and moral standards. That independence is the only way to be free of this tyrant. 
    4.) He anticipates it very well by saying that they were denied by a tyrant, unfit to be a ruler of free people, putting the King in the hot-seat.
    5.) He says that to show how everyone from Britain hates them 
    6.) Second paragraph, last two sentences. He gave a quick foundation as his intro, so after that was established, his thesis lie out what the rest of his declaration was going to be about.




Style & Structure
     1.) It relies on both. it uses both to emphasize key points he was trying to make. Such as the king being an all around hated guy who was unjust.
     2.) He uses smooth transition words such as," Nor." and,"We, therefore." which made it very easy for the reader, such as myself, to follow along with the message he was trying to get across.
     3.) To emphasize just how bad the king one. Too show what he has done over his time of rule and to appeal to the citizens, it is time we became independent from Great Britain.
     4.) I think it was an excellent way to conclude his declaration. Referring back to his comrades as it is a responsibility to, as well as their right, to become free and independent states.
