In Frederick Douglass why is Mr Austin Gore a first-rate overseer What is ironic about his name?

I think the best way to understand something, is to see what it is not. Mr. Hopkins was succeeded by Mr. Gore. Douglass tells us Mr. Hopkins career was very brief; due in part, because he "lacked the necessary severity to suit Colonel Lloyd." Therefore, severity is the key element of a first-rate overseer. And Mr. Gore was a first-rate overseer, because even his presence alone "produced horror and trembling in their [slaves] ranks." Douglass paints him as a savage and a murderer; a cruel man. The slaves belonged, here, to Colonel Lloyd, and Mr. Gore was employed by the Colonel. Douglass describes the Colonel's wealth as that of Job, and owned a thousand slaves. And the whole family "enjoyed the luxury of whipping" the slaves as they pleased. The Colonel made the slave he was whipping bow his head as he received the lashes. Douglass tells us a story of the Colonel meeting one of his slaves one day while he was riding along the road; the slave does not know the colonel his master. In a series of questions, the slave replies with the truth: "Well, does the colonel treat you well?" the colonel asks the slave, and the slave tells him, "No, sir." For this, the slave is uprooted from his family and friends and sold. The irony of a person's name is what the reader makes of it. No name, however, can fully match barbarians such as Colonel Lloyd and Mr. Gore. The true irony, here, their ideology of inflicting fear as motivation to work harder at any cost, prevails today.


How do you use Nom de guerre in a sentence?

The usage is the same as 'nom de plume' and 'nom to rigueur'' but the context is different. De guerre denotes falsehood, though not necessarily with negative intent. For example; Mr Darcy is the nom de guerre of the notorious womaniser John Smith. Going by the nom de guerre of Mr Darcy, John Smith tricked the young woman into marrying him with the promise of family fortunes. Distinguish: Nom de plume - Which is a nom de guerre relating specifically to writers. John Smith writes under the nom de plume of Mr Darcy. Distinguish: De Rigueur - which is a falsehood, but also fashionable, either playing to etiquette or taken up on a whim. Mr Darcy is the nom de rigeur of John Smith, recent heir to the Smith fortune. (Now that John Smith is rich, he uses the name Mr Darcy because he feels it's more appropriate to his station as a wealthy gentleman.) John Smith took up the nom de rigeur "Emiliano" shortly after his debut. (John Smith is an impressionist artist and felt that his original name was too plain to give him credibility.)
