Exploring the intersection of morality and the supernatural, this seminar paper examines Equiano's unique approach to arguing against slavery by merging religious and Enlightenment ideals. It analyzes the use of intertextual elements and explicit references within his work, demonstrating how Equiano successfully reconciles these seemingly opposing perspectives. The study highlights the philosophical influences of thinkers like Rousseau and delves into the implications of this synthesis for understanding moral arguments in the context of race and gender during 1770-1830.
