Style (cont.) Reoccurrence of God and religion "Every tone was a testimony against slavery, and prayer to God for deliverance from chains." Uses metaphors "...they were tones, loud, long and deep, breathing the prayer and complaint of souls boiling over with the bitterest anguish."

Noted Novels/Stories Three autobiographies - A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave (1845) - By Bondage and My Freedom (1855) - Life and Times of Frederick Douglass (1881)

Themes/ Issues Freedom/ antislavery/ inequality "Those songs still follow me, to deepen my hatred of slavery, and quicken my sympathies for my brethren in bonds."
