Question

Read the excerpt from The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equiano. Explain what Equiano means when he says, “All within my breast was tumult, wildness, and delirium!” How would this be different if an outside narrator were describing it?

Answer 1

Equiano is feeling very mixed emotions during this time. This shows how dramatic these times can be for someone and how wild someone might react to being free from slavery. Since this is being told from first person POV, an outisde narrator might not pick up and portray all these emotions being seen.

Step-by-step explanation:

not Plato sample so feel free to use or add on.

Answer 2

Here Equiano describes the emotions he is feeling after finding out he is to be freed from his slavery. He feels a mix of emotions that vary wildly, and Equiano demonstrates how dramatic and revolutionary an unprecedented experience might feel. Because Equiano is telling his story in the first person, the events of the story have a more personal and intimate effect than if they were told through the lens of an outside narrator.
