Abstract:
This paper is dedicated to a systematic analysis of the argumentative aspect of Abigail’s speech, which is the primary pivot of the speech. The argument is founded on two separate demands of David by Abigail: preventing the spilling of innocent blood, and avoiding self-redemption. These two demands relate to two different facets in David’s plan, exemplify different ideas, and attest to Abigail’s varied motivations. The discussion explores the legitimacy of David’s self-redemption, and its conclusions reveal a new facet in Abigail’s speech, which clarifies her dual function in the narrative.
