is about how the preservation of mankind is the writer’s responsibility, how man-kind should prevail and endure all the conflicts of the heart and it is the writer’s duty to write about these things. In his speech he links the importance of the preservation of writers and the preservation of mankind. He makes the writers believe that in order for mankind to prevail and endure, writers must commit to write about mankind’s conflicts. He does not only make it their responsibility but drive them to become a paragon of a great writer. He is saying that the writer today no longer focus on things that can be understood by all. He says everyone can understand love, compassion, sacrifice, etc. because we experience these things every day.. Faulkner gives the writers advice that when they are writing, write about the heart, from the heart, and for the heart. He achieves his speech’s intended goal by using words of encouragement to drive writers to write with compassion and from the heart, using antonyms throughout his speech to demonstrate his contrasting view and to emphasize his idea for writers to become better writers, and using a similar sentence structure to emphasize the importance of a writer’s inspiration.
