LSAT 33 Explanations

RC Question 11 Explanation

DISCUSSION: We can support the critics by showing that Jacobs compromised her experience as a slave.

___________

  1. CORRECT. This strengthens the critics, who argued that Jacobs dulled the power of her work by fitting her experiences within the conventions of domestic literature. 
  2. This shows that Jacobs’ work had a powerful impact, even though it was similar to a conventional domestic novel.
  3. This shows that Jacobs’ novel was more powerful because it was a domestic novel. That undermines the critics, who argued that Jacobs’ novel’s impact was weakened because it was domestic. 
  4. This weakens the critics’ point that Jacobs’ novel compromised its role as slave literature by adopting the forms of a domestic novel. It shows Jacobs’ novel was broader than that.
  5. If so, then this shows the critics may have been too narrowly focussed. They forget that a novel often has to be gripping to convince us of its message.
