Answer:

The best answer to the question: What literary device is the term war gear, would be: It is a kenning.

Explanation:

This literary device, which is used as a figure of speech as well, is very common particularly in Old Norse and Old English poetry. And this particular kenning, war gear, is part of Beowulf, a poem that has been known for being rich in this type of figurative language.

A kenning is described as a literary device in which a compound of two words, are used to form poetic expressions, often metaphorical, and that make relation to either a person, or a thing. They tend to make reference to words, or concepts, that are more simple without the use of these literary devices.

Lyrx [107]

In this excerpt, we can cleary see how Satan perceived men as superior than women because he claims in favour of men using big and good adjectives to describe them, adjectives related to strong people and so on. Inteasted, he describes women with soft adjectives treating them as delicated people, warm, affectionate ones, leading to believe they can not be strong as men. To support this, we can use the following lines: "<em>The image of their glorious Maker shon, Truth, Wisdome, Sanctitude severe and pure, Severe, but in true filial freedom plac't; Whence true autoritie in men; though both Not equal, as their sex not equal seemd;"</em>

Elden [556K]

Stowe uses this dialogue between George and Haley to illustrate that slavery is unethical in every circumstance by showing that there are two parts involved who are equally as guilty for the problem.

George criticizes Haley for selling men and women but at the same time buys slaves himself. George knows that slavery is wrong and does not approve of it. However, he still participates and helps the system to keep standing by buying people to work for him.

With this, the author seeks to convey the idea that it is not only selling slaves that is unethical, but also buying them.
