第二篇:the figurative language used in Martin Luther King Jr.

the figurative language used in Martin Luther King Jr.

in the poetry Martin Luther King Jr., like other forms of literature, makes great use of figurative language. in this poetry, on the other hand, the whole poetry is written in metaphors. by using metaphors, from the use of stated metaphors and implicit metaphors, the author brooks creates a powerful image of Martin Luther King Jr.

the whole poetry starts with ‘a man went forth with gifts’, so as to make the basic and fundamental theme and mood in this poetry. then the author begins to explain his statement through his argument by maKing good use of different metaphors, both stated and implicit metaphors.

firstly, in ‘Martin Luther King Jr.’ from line 2 to 4, each line uses stated metaphors, and contributes to prove different kinds of qualities that Martin Luther King Jr. possesses and different feelings the author towards him.

he was a prose poem.

he was a tragic grace.

he was a warm music.

the author creates a particular image of Martin Luther King Jr. by stating that he was each of those things. in the first line, by comparing King to a prose poem, brooks is suggesting King’s unusual combination of qualities. the word poem suggests that he possessed musical sounds and rhythm as well as rich imagery. prose suggests earthiness, a connection with the common people and their concerns. thus, a prose poem suggests King was both a visionary and an effective popular the second sentence, by comparing King to a tragic grace, the author gives the known historical information, a tragic assassinate which killed King. even though he was assassinated, he has made a lasting impression on the generations. his beautiful and charming personality will pass down forever. besides, the author suggests that he was awarded a nobel peace prize after his death. it was a great grace for him. in the third line, the author states that he was a warm music. the word ‘warm’ directly suggests the author’s attitude towards him, adorable and respectful. he compares King as the

warm music, because both can comfort people’s heart and spirit. just like the music can touch human’s heart, Martin Luther King Jr. will accompany its people and encourage them to fight for their dreams forever.

next, in the following poetry, the author changes to use another metaphor---the implicit metaphor. there are two metaphors in lines 5. the first implicit metaphor is implied by the verb heal. in our society we usually treat healers as doctors, nurses, and other medical people. but people without medical training can also help to heal. for example, friends or parents can help to heal hurt feelings. so just like a healer, Martin Luther King Jr. usually helped to heal people’s hurt feelings. the second metaphor in line 5 is contained in the phrase ‘vivid volcanoes.’ Martin Luther King Jr., tried to calm explosive and life threatening conditions in the world—the condition that lead to fighting, division, and hatred. those conditions are the vivid volcanoes. however, in line 6, the author turns to use stated metaphor again. ‘his ashes are reading the world.’ the ashes suggest King’s death. the author suggests that even though he has died, he has been watching his people and the whole world. furthermore, in line 10, the author turns to use implicit metaphor again. the first implicit metaphor is implied by the verb burns. in this poetry, it means his words ---his dream ---is remembered and will be last forever. the second is the center of the sun, here means the whole universe. so the author conveys the idea that King’s dream---nonviolently fighting for freedom---will be inherited. the thir(请关注)d is the thousands and the hundred thousands. here allude the greatest majority of his people. line 13 points out the word, that’s the famous speech which declared his great dream--fight for human’s justice. the author tries to prove he and his dream will be remembered and his unfinished career will be carried on by his people forever.

to make a conclusion, in the whole poetry, the author constantly uses different metaphors, from the stated metaphor to the implicit metaphor. by using the combination of stated and implicit metaphors, brooks successfully achieves his purpose, creating a respectable and lovable image of Martin Luther King for the reader; at the same time, strongly conveying people’s love and esteem towards Martin Luther King.

第三篇:Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King, Jr.

i say to you, my friends, so even though we must face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, i still have a dream. it is a dream deeply rooted in the american dream.

i have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed - we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.

i have a dream that one day on the red hills of georgia, sons of former slaves and sons of former slave-owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.

i have a dream that one day, even the state of mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.

i have a dream my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

第四篇:Martin Luther King, j

1. when was Martin Luther King, jr killed? 2. which state was reported to came together to remember the man? 3. how do they remember the man? 4. how do they feel the black people's situation nowadays? why?

5. what does it remind us?

and april 4th, 1968, james earl ray kills Martin Luther King, ght, 41 years after the assassination, the south florida community came together to remember the message preached by dr King. cbs4's michael williams has the story.

they lifted their voices and their spirits in liberty city. an assassin's bullet claimed Martin Luther King's life on this april night in memphis in 1968, but it could not claim his voice and his vision, they marched too, dads with sons who would never know a country that did not have a black man as president, in large part because of the path trail-blazed so long ago, and so, they celebrated it.

"we come a long way, and Martin Luther King opened, you know, opened the1

door.”

"we’ve done leaps and bounds as far as race relations. i think we still have a long way to go.”

much they say has changed for the good, but for old-timers watching the march pass by, there remains the nagging worry that the community is still not fully in step with King's call for equality always and everywhere.

"there is no real community ownership here, a black still don't have community control over the businesses.""we have to come together, to survive as one people, as one nation of people."and beyond the economic challenges, violent crime continues to often take its cruelest toll in the black community. "that resonates with all of the residents and me, as a leader, it is important for us to work harder and do more to make opportunities available for young people."

so many hurdles yet to clear but at this gathering also a chance to acknowledge all the ones that have been crossed.

"we came a long way, we came a long way. as i remember when i want to go to school back in the 50's, i couldn't do what i'm doing today. i thank god almighty."

remembering the dream and reclaiming it as well as the slogan of the night says historyis best served. these people remind us by always trying to renew its lessons of equality and opportunity in this community.
