    Sebastian the Crab uses rhetorical devices in the song "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid to convince Ariel that life on land is more dangerous and difficult than she imagines, and that she should stay in the sea instead of pursuing her dream of going to the human world. He employs juxtaposition to contrast the romanticized view of land with a darker reality, asks rhetorical questions to plant doubts, and provides vivid descriptions to emphasize potential hazards on land. Overall, the song aims to dissuade Ariel from leaving the ocean.

    Thesis Template:

    In the calypso song Under the Sea from Walt Disney’s The Little Mermaid, a close friend and advisor of Ariel the
    mermaid, Sebastian the Crab, uses juxtaposition, hypophora, and graphic imagery in order to explain that going to
    land is more romanticized than it should be, ultimately moving Ariel to stay in the sea and forget about going to the
    shore.
