In at least 150 words, compare the experience of Conrad Weiser as described in Franklin's Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America to that of Mary Rowlandson upon the arrival of John Hoar in The Narrative of the Captivity and Restoration of Mrs. Mary Rowlandson.

Answer and Explanation:

Franklin's text shows a softer view of Native Americans, through the experience of Conrad Weiser. Through the text, we can see an attempt to live in union with the Latin tribes and the attempt to settle the beliefs and values between the two cultures. However, Rowlandson's experience shows a negative view towards the natives. Her narrative shows them how rowdy, very dangerous and undisciplined they are, however, she shows that her opinion has changed a little in relation to them during the time she was held captive, but it does not take away the fact of the violence that was used in her capture .
