1 Chief Seattle Analysis. >>> How to write an essay? Order on the website HelpWriting.Net <<<. Chief Seattle Analysis The first reason nature is ending drastically is because of carelessness. Humans started to become careless because they wanted land. They do not care about the beauty of nature and how it will affect us in the future. For example: "The earth is not his brother, but his enemy, and when he has conquered it, he moves on" (Chief Seattle). The more land the humans acquire, the more power they possess. Many people wanted land in order to obtain power, yet they took advantage of other people's property and claimed it as their own; however, claiming a property that does not belong to a person cannot claim as his own. Another example of such aggression is on Chief Seattle's essay, "Letter to President Pierce, 1855." He mentions how a white man hated >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

2 Help Essay Writing - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle's Speech By Henry A. Smith I would like to say that Chief Seattle is honest in his speech,but there is this biased part of me that makes me want to believe, he wasn't so willing to trust the White Man, and he too like the young men of his tribe was prepared to fight for their land. It's hard to tell whether,or not part of his dissertation was fabricated, since it was translated based on the research of Henry A. Smith a caucasian male and published in 1887 thirty –three years after the events of this dissertation were in motion.. Chief Seattle describes the war paint of the young men of his tribe as a symbol of anger and an impulsive need for retribution,and revenge, against someone or something usually by cruel or relentless measures such as war with,or without the respect,or consent of elders. Chief Seattle says it is his young men in his tribe's wish to fight the white men who seek to "exploit" their land from them.... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... White men are "like" brothers to the Indians in the sense that just as the great spirit couldn't save it's nation of red men, god who walked on earth and treated the white men as equals will not save them. They may graciously receive this land but they will graciously lose it as well, it is the cycle which embodies all. All men gain to lose,red or white. There will come a time when the white men are pushed to the side and all but forgotten just as the red men >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

3 College Admission Essay Service - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle Speech Summary Two great chiefs, Tecumseh and Seattle, attempted to address the U.S. government's negligence against the Native American tribes, who preceded the very men who ignore their needs. Chief Seattle delivers a speech to President Pierce in 1855, and in it contrasts nature and artificial cities. "There is no quiet place in man's cities, no place to hear the leaves of spring or the rustle of insect wings. But perhaps because I am a savage and do not understand, the clatter only seems to insult the ears." (Seattle). He uses imagery to describe the delicacy of nature to the crude artificialness of "man's cities", and provide a greater understanding of how their lives differ. Chief Seattle knows that the President, just like all other white me, has preconceptions about Native Americans. He most likely believes them to be too simplistic for white society, and even more so fears them. He already knows that white men perceive them as savages and acknowledges this in his speech in a repetitive manner saying, "but we are just savages and do not understand" (Seattle) three times. Chief Seattle despite knowing all of this, still attempts to get the white people to understand, because he doesn't want the two peoples, white and red, to live in fear of the other. He wants them to change their ways, and stop destroying the Earth. He want's both the Tribes and the white men to become co inhabitants and stop fighting for the sake of land. He is aiming for mutual respect and understanding, if not >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

In Chief Seattle oration, he attempts to convince Governor Isaac Stevens and the white people that they should be treated fairly despite their condition... Through the use of rhetorical devices like organization, figurative language, tone, and diction, Chief Seattle implies that though they are small, they are not powerless. Chief Seattle uses many types of figurative language. "Today is fair. Tomorrow may be overcast with clouds. My words are like the stars that never change." Chief Seattle uses this simile to increase his trustworthiness, sincerity, and to show that even though people may change, his word remains the same. Another example of a simile used by Chief Seattle is, "The Red Man has never fled the approach of the White Man, as >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

5 Custom Essay Service Toronto - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle's Oration to Governor Stevens Is it Red Face vs. White Face, or Red faces and White faces? Chief Seattle, in this oration to Governor Stevens, discusses the comparatives and differences between these two conglomerations of people using rhetoric devices such as similes, concession, repetition, and tone. Through the use of these devices, Chief Seattle sets in his purposes of both warning the White Faces that although they hold the current power, and although the Native Americans want to live as one, that they have some power as well, and show his fellow brothers and sisters that although they may be weak now, not only in numbers but in strength, that they have power and might and the ability to eventually seek revenge on those who do them injustice. Seattle begins his... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... "There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a windruffled sea cover its shell– paved floor" this simile was used to convey the constant reminder that the Red face people were once vast and abundant in the extensive country, but now their numbers have weakened, it creates a sense of pathos with the audience. It allows the audience to feel empathy for the group and connect with them on an emotional level. The diction used in the quote, " I will not dwell on, nor mourn over, our untimely decay, nor reproach my paleface brothers with hastening it as we too may have been somewhat to blame" is utilized to develop Seattle's point that although some may blame the White faces for their untimely demise because of Westward expansion and their slow takeover of the lands, it is not entirely their fault. The Native Americans can be blamed for some of the misfortune as well, the easy route should not always be taken for the simplicity of the route, sometimes taking the blame for the demise of your people, can prevent further disturbance by other people ignited by their annoyance and anger of being blamed for demise. As the oration continues, Seattle goes on to use slight symbolism and diction to discuss the impulsiveness of the youth and how, "demons run when a good man goes to war", "night will fall and the dark will rise, when a good man goes to war" >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

6 Write My College Essay For Me - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle's Orientation Analysis Chief Seattle's Orientation Governor Isaac I. Stevens is welcomed back from Washington D.C with a speech by Chief Seattle regarding orders to purchase Indian land and create reservations. Chief Seattle challenges Governor Isaac I. Stevens motives for relocating native tribes in order to protect the prosperity of his tribe. Washington's proposal was created with the intentions of simply relocating Chief Seattle's native tribe, however Seattle emphasises on the factors of the plan that would lead to the extinction of his people. He begins by confronting Governor Isaac I. Stevens with his own perspective of the situation by stating, "This indeed appears just, even generous, for the Red Man no longer has rights that need respect him." Seattle's...

He explains his tribe's contact with their ancestors by stating, "Our dead never forget the beautiful world that gave them being and often return to visit, guide, console, and comfort the lonely hearted living" This statement helps convey the strength Seattle's tribe has with their sacred ground. In addition, with their ancestors being deeply connected with the land, the relocation of their tribe would affect the dynamic between Seattle's tribe and their ancestors. As a result, Chief Seattle's visual imagery becomes an important strategy in influencing the government's decision. Seattle ends his speech with a powerful depiction of the remnants of his land after the movement of his people, "these shores will swarm with the invisible dead of my tribe." By clarifying their land is sacred to them because it serves as a burial site for their ancestors, Chief Seattle's threats become less obscure. With Chief Seattle's acceptance of defeat, he concludes his argument with an attack on the government's motives. He commits these actions with the intent of punishing the United States with their unjustifiable actions. With his tribe's cultural belief tied into the arrangement, Chief Seattle's argument provides a moral factor into the final >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

Chief Seattle is trying to appeal both to his tribal members and to the white settlers offering to buy the tribal land. Seattle's speech is a mix of placatory language and of bitter remarks about the differences between whites and natives. Chief Seattle uses logos to convince both sides of the validity of his claims, he uses pathos to garner support from his own people Chief Seattle employs logical arguments quite strikingly throughout his speech. Logos is used very clearly when Seattle speaks about the power differences between his tribe and the white settlers. He openly acknowledges that "his people are many...while...

Seattle speaks about how, even after the last red men are gone, their memory will live on and give them power. H estates that the white man will never live alone because the spirits of the red man will always be there on the land. He speaks about how everything must come to an end, and how the facts of life are immutable for everybody (Smith 17).

8 Write My Essay For Me Cheap - " HelpWriting.Net ". Analysis Of The Article ' Chief Seattle ' Essay In this article Chief Seattle is mainly talking about how Indians don't understand white men and how white men don't understand Indians. One of the points Seattle discusses is how the value of land is seen differently between the two. Indians see the land as a sacred and prosperous place that is to be lived on and cherished. White men see land as being the same wherever they go, so they think they can take it from wherever or whomever, use it for a while, and then leave. The next point discussed is the two different styles of living. One style is peaceful, solitary, and laid back, while the other is loud and busy. The final main point made is that they, the Indians and the white men, are both human beings and are all connected, in the sense that what happens to one affects all.With America actually being seen as the land of assurance, the American dream is usually associated with the freedom and opportunity of gaining prosperity, recognition, power, triumph, and contentment.

What Is The Thesis In Chief Seattle's Speech In Chief Seattle's (Si'ahl) "Speech on the Signing of the Treaty of Port Elliot, 1855," he addressed the U.S Government and pleaded for the fair treatment of his people and the respect of their native culture. Born in 1788, Chief Seattle was from the Suquamish and Duwamish tribes and inherited his position as Chief of the Duwamish from his maternal uncle. In his speech Chief Seattle expressed no ill intentions towards the white man for wanting to "buy their land," although owning the earth was unknown idea to his people. He understands that the white man are many and his people are few and they are no longer are in need of such vast land. With this "purchase" they will also be protected from invading tribes from their new brother's in arms, although he does struggled with the differences in their newfound God and how they will ever truly be brothers.

But, "today it is fair tomorrow I may be overcast with clouds," was one of the quotes that stood out the most. I agree with Chief Seattle's words because people are not sure what the future can bring them. The future may bring surprising, sad and inspiring moments. Just how in the speech life also bring surprising moment. The Duwamish Tribe was surprised that Chief Seattle said no to war.

Chief Seattle and Chief Tecumseh In both of the speeches, there were many similarities and differences, but the speeches are different in structure and tone. In the speech of Chief Seattle his rhetorical strategy that he mostly uses is his character, and his emotions to attract his audience. For instance, Chief Joseph tries to point out to General Howard, and the white men that if "He leaves his fathers graves, and his children's birthright is forgotten" (L. 4–5). The chief is saying that white man are covering the fact that they are causing damage to the Native Americans without realizing it.

14 College Essay Help Service - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Tecumseh And Chief Seattle Speech Through these neglections and stereotypes, two Chiefs, Seattle and Tecumseh, speak out for their people by using various forms of rhetoric. In Chief Seattle's speech, he makes a letter to President Franklin Pierce and any other Americans that play any parts in Parliament. The audience that the chief is reaching out to may have Manifest Destiny, belief that God approves of the U.S, as well as the belief that Indians are savages. Chief Seattle explains, however, that the Americans are the true savages because they can not hear the sound of nature in addition to having "no place to hear the leaves of springs or the rustle of the insect's wings" (Seattle). Chief Seattle contrasts how unnatural the Americans are by saying that the sounds of nature are absent in the American lands. The author does this to show his intended audience who the true savages are in hopes of showing the Americans how the Indians view the American beliefs. Chief Tecumseh was another Chief who spoke out for his people, but used different tactics than Chief Seattle. In chief Tecumseh's speech, he makes a letter to General William Henry Harrison, rather than the President. The audience that Tecumseh is reaching out to may see the Indians as a threat rather than the Americans as superior. Chief Tecumseh explains, however, that the Americans are continually driving the red people, when at last you will drive them into the great lake [Lake Michigan], where they can neither stand nor work" (Tecumseh).

15 Custom Essays Writing Service - " HelpWriting.Net ". The essay "Letter to President Pierce" written by Chief Seattle in 1855 lays out some of the biggest differences between white American culture and the culture of Native Americans. The essay is very brief in length but it does address many points that can be take farther. Chief Seattle begins the essay with simple stating the obvious; that everyone already knows white men and natives do not understand each other's ways of living. He continues this by saying that even though the land that each of them hold is the same the way that it is handled could make you think otherwise. Chief Seattle believes that white man tires to fight and pillage everything rather work with it. This is the start of one of the biggest differences between the two cultures. By acting this way Seattle thinks that white man has no real connection to his culture because he continuously moves on from place to place leaving behind anything that was built by his ancestors. However, he contradicts himself by saying that maybe his thoughts are wrong because he is only a savage. The next main point that Seattle addresses is how he compares the silence of nature rather than all of the manmade noise of cities. He questions his stance on the noise pollution made by cities and asks if the only reason he does not like it is because he has not learned the "civilization" of it. Seattle believes in working with nature and what the world has given us, so that humans will last. He makes a strong point that if something >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

16 Help On Essay Writing - " HelpWriting.Net ". Rhetorical Analysis Of Chief Seattle While the 19th century Americans were the adventurers and explorers of this land, they were also the conquerors and exploiters. During the infamous Trail of Tears, the Cherokee nation was forced onto a 1000– mile march, during which thousands of Native American perished. In the Letter to President Pierce, Chief Seattle condemns the white people's disrespectful exploitation of land through rhetorical strategies such as sarcastic tone, the imagery of the nature, and the parallel structure of "what" towards the end of the letter. Chief Seattle maintains a sarcastic tone throughout the letter. He repeatedly refers to the red men as "savage" who "does not understand," "But perhaps because I am a savage and does not understand, the clatter only seems to insult the ears." (Line 11–12) The white men's destruction of the land and their bustling cities disgust the Native Americans, yet Chief Seattle still refers to themselves the savages who failed to comprehend white men's ideology. Such ironic comment suggests that the white men are actually the savages who fail to understand the Native American's perception of the... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... Chief Seattle describes,"The Indian prefers the soft sound of the wind darting over the face of the pond, the smell of the wind itself cleansed by a mid– day rain, or scented with the piГ±on pine." (Line 12– 14) By using a combination of visual, auditory and olfactory imagery, Chief Seattle portraits a serene nature preferred by the Native Americans. In contrast, he argues that on the land exploited by the white men, "the buffalo are all slaughtered, the wild horses all tamed, the secret corners of the forest heart with the scent of many men, and the view of the ripe hills blotted by talking wires." (Line 27–29) By contrasting the desolate scene with the nature full of vitality, Chief Seattle condemns the white men's exploitation of the >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<

17 Writing Essay Help - " HelpWriting.Net ". Rhetorical Analysis Of Chief Seattle's Oration Chief Seattle's Oration: The Fight For Equal Treatment The Indians have lived in North America for over 12,000 years. However, they were soon pushed away by white settlers and were treated unfairly. In Chief Seattle's oration, written in the 1800s, he writes a letter directly to Governor Isaac I telling him that the Indians want to keep their territory. Chief Seattle writes in an extremely well– mannered way as he hopes to persuade the Governor to not take their land. The oration is filled with pathos, personification, similes, and many more rhetorical devices. This depressing oration is relatively effective because Chief Seattle states the immoral treatments the white settlers have done to them, however, it was not persuasive enough to change the Governor's mind. Chief Seattle emphasizes the Native American's connection to nature and the Earth in order to protect his tribe from being removed from their land. In such ways, he uses personification and shows how inanimate objects can also bring emotion. A sad personification the Chief uses is,"... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... Chief Seattle states a difference using simile in his first paragraph, " His people are many. They are like the grass that covers vast prairies. My people are few. They resemble the scattering trees of a storm –swept plain" (1). This comparison shows how much the white settlers outnumber the Native Americans. Even if the Native Americans try to fight back, they are outnumbered. Also, Chief Seattle states, " There was a time when our people covered the land as the waves of a wind– ruffled sea cover its shell– paved floor, but that time long since passed away with the greatness of our tribe that are now but a mournful memory" (2).

18 Essay Proofreading Services - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle Essay Chief Seattle When stories are told about the American Indian it is usually the Indians that are looked upon as the heathens. They are portrayed as savages who spent most of their time raiding wagon trains and scalping the white settlers just for fun. The media has lead us to believe that the American government was forced to take the land from these savage Indians. We should put the blame where it belongs, on the U.S. Government who lied, cheated, and stole from the Indians forcing many Indian leaders to surrender not only their tribes but their nation in order to save the lives of their people. Among the Indians of the Pacific Northwest, perhaps the best known may be Chief Seattle. Chief Seattle (more correctly known as Seathl or... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... Seattle moved to Port Madison Reservation and lived in Old Man House, just across from Bainbridge Island; "This was a community house measuring some 60' x 900' feet easily the largest Indian made wooden structure in the region". (4) When settlers first came to America they were meet by Indians. Once the settlers were able to make it on there own, they no longer needed Indian help. Then they began to try to change the ways and beliefs of the Indian. One of the aspects that the settlers spent much time on trying to change of the Indians was their religion. Influenced by missionaries, Seattle decided to convert to Christianity and was later baptized in 1838 by Father Modest Demers, at which time Seattle adopted the Christian name "Noah". One of the major differences I noticed while researching information about Chief Seattle is that in Catholicism there is one book, I'm sure that we all have heard of it, the Bible. In Catholicism it is made up of the Old Testament and the New Testament. The Old Testament is made up of scriptures before the coming of Jesus. The New Testament is made up of scriptures written up after the coming of Jesus. These scriptures are written up pretty straight forward and they are read year in and year out. There is no room for individual interpretation by the reader, it is set in structure. In the Indian religion everything is told through myths and legends.

19 Essay Writing Company Reviews - " HelpWriting.Net ". Chief Seattle Essay Chief Seattle, in his masterfully worded speech to Governor Isaac I. Stevens, attempts to convince Stevens's people to treat his people kindly and fairly. At the same time, Seattle warns Stevens about the many negative aspects of his tribe. Through the use of juxtaposition, an uncompromising tone towards his surrounding world, and personification of specific objects, Seattle clearly conveys his point to the Governor. Juxtaposition is used to point out many differences between Seattle's tribe and the Americans. Take, for instance, Chief Seattle stating that the American's "people are many" and that "They are like the grass that covers vast prairies". In contrast, he also describes his tribe as "few" and like the "scattering trees of a... Show more content on Helpwriting.net... With seemingly no regrets whatsoever, Seattle boldly states that he "will not dwell on, nor mourn over, our untimely decay". Seattle says this statement with a clear heaviness on his shoulder, as articulates that he and his brother "may have been somewhat to blame". Seattle's conviction not only affects him deeply, but also Governor Stevens; he now knows the tragic story behind Chief Seattle's people and is forced to sympathize with Seattle and his tribe if and when he'll deal with Seattle's land, therefore being forced to treat Seattle's tribe with fairness and kindness as well. Seattle's view on his world shifts to youth and the nature of his young tribesmen. When Seattle bluntly states that "Youth is impulsive", and characterizes them with "black hearts", he shows just how much Seattle's tribe has declined, which is basically another said warning to the Americans. Chief Seattle then shows his cynical side when he asserts that "The White Man will never be alone" and that when their "children's children think themselves alone, they will not be alone". The repeated use of "will" convey his absolute stance on the state of his tribe and the Americans. Seattle's promise that the white man will never be alone is ominous, and this really warns Steven about the potential dangers of Seattle's tribe. Seattle also implies his people will have company for a long time if their "children's children" will >>> Get more content on Helpwriting.net <<<
