what rhetorical devices does this passage represent below?




It frightens me because I wonder: do i have the right to represent the multitudes who have perished? Do I have the right to accept this great honor on their behalf? ... I do not. That
would be presumptuous. No one may speak for the dead, no one may interpret their mutilated dreams and visions.

Answer:

Wiesel wonders if he has the right to accept a medal on behalf of “multitudes” and secondly whether he has the right to accept “on their behalf.” Restatement and repetition in this question's phrasing makes it clear that the central idea is being discussed.

“Both frightens and pleases me.” In the following paragraph he explains why it frightens him and then, in a second paragraph, why it pleases him. Even though Wiesel discusses an emotional issue, he does it with clear logic and organization.

"Do I have the right to accept this great honor on their behalf? ... I do not. That  would be presumptuous. Even if his topic is extremely emotive, this reaction displays logical thinking and is, thus, persuasive.
