"we were all ranked together at the valuation. men and women, old and young, married and single, were ranked with
horses, sheep, and swine. there were horses and men, cattle and women, pigs and children, all holding the same
rank in the scale of being, and all were subjected to the same narrow examination. silvery-headed age and sprightly
youth, maids and matrons had to undergo the same indelicate inspection. at this moment, i saw more clearly than
ever the brutalizing effects of slavery upon both slave and slaveholder."
when douglass says that "silvery-headed age and sprightly youth, maids and matrons, had to undergo the same
indelicate inspection," what contrast is douglass creating?

What does the author see as the main cause for why students don’t really see shakespeare as a real, flawed human being? we shouldn’t shy away from discussing our literary heroes’ flaws. if nothing else, the knowledge of their failures us appreciate what success and greatness these authors did achieve. often our hero-worship keeps us from truly seeing the complexity of a great author. thus, i would argue, nothing would be better for high school students than to take shakespeare down a peg or two. a) the fact that students never learn enough about shakespeares biography b) the fact that students only read shakespeare’s comedies while in school c) the fact that students are never assigned to read any shakespeare while in high school d) the fact that students only read shakespeare’s greatest works in school and thus never see his weaknesses
