Subject

The term subjection describes the asking of a rhetorical question that the questioner has already answered himself or to which the speaker or narrator immediately gives the answer himself. The aim is to create variety and to involve the listener or reader in your own thoughts.

The questioner does not consciously notice that deep emotions , self-contained images, worldviews, dogmas and paradigms have already forced a self-given answer. Subjection fulfills the act of belief in the sense of finally accepted answers, which often block the process of further knowledge through the dogmas that go with it.

Examples

“What is the earth space? The hard-working. "( Johann Gottfried Herder )

“But what am I talking about? We all know the answer. "
