Of Plymouth Plantation is the document of this long journey through which Bradford became a community leader, governor of the Plymouth Colony, writer and considered the main founder of the American Society. In this paper I chose pages 71, 72 and 73 to make a close reading of two paragraphs where Bradford speaks about the visit of Mr. Morton of Merrymount to the Puritan’s colony. I will first do the close reading of these paragraphs; explain my understanding of them, pointing out some details which I will extract from these parts of the text. Then I will discuss about the literary techniques applied in Bradford’s narrative, regarding these paragraphs above mentioned.
