Benjamin Franklin said, "Be assured, a Woman's Power, as well as Happiness, has no other Foundation but her Husband's Esteem and

Love." Based on her thinking after learning of her husband's death, how would Mrs. Mallard in "The Story of an Hour" have responded to Franklin's idea? Use evidence from the story to support your conclusion.

In this quote, Benjamin Franklin expresses the view that a woman has no other purpose except making her husband happy, and that her ultimate happiness lies in knowing he loves her. If this were true, we would assume that a woman who is left alone would have no more reason to live, let alone to be happy. This is the complete opposite of what happens to Mrs. Mallard. Mrs. Mallard feels trapped in a loveless marriage, until her husband passes away. Although at first she is shocked, she soon realizes that now she is free, and she feels as if her life was only now beginning. Therefore, her situation proves the falsehood of Franklin's assessment.

In “The Story of an Hour” Louise Mallard is the protagonist who suffers in a marriage she is not happy with. Different from Benjamin Franklin’s assumption, when her husband dies in a train accident she cries of course, but later she notices that she is free from her marriage and now she has a will to live.

Her marriage made her so miserable she wanted to die and once she is freed from it she desires to live she even screams <em>“free, free, free!” (262)</em>.  So you can assume that the character would not agree with Franklin’s thoughts.

Answer:

Explanation:

The Great Compromise solved issues between states with small populations and states with large populations.

The Great Compromise was developed at the Constitutional Convention and helped in creating the modern day structure of Congress. In this deal, both states with small populations and large populations got something they wanted. For example, the Senate would be composed of 2 Senators from each state, regardless of their states population. This helped to ensure that smaller states had a voice in the creation of federal laws.

On the other hand, the House of Representatives would have the number of representatives based on a states population. The greater the population, the more representatives. This made larger states happy, as they felt this accurately represented the power they should have in Congress

Spanish

El Gran Compromiso resolvió problemas entre estados con poblaciones pequeñas y estados con poblaciones grandes.

El Gran Compromiso se desarrolló en la Convención Constitucional y ayudó a crear la estructura moderna del Congreso. En este acuerdo, ambos estados con poblaciones pequeñas y grandes obtuvieron algo que querían. Por ejemplo, el Senado estaría compuesto por 2 senadores de cada estado, independientemente de la población de su estado. Esto ayudó a asegurar que los estados más pequeños tuvieran voz en la creación de leyes federales.

Por otro lado, la Cámara de Representantes tendría el número de representantes basado en la población de un estado. Cuanto mayor sea la población, más representantes. Esto hizo felices a los estados más grandes, ya que sentían que esto representaba con precisión el poder que deberían tener en el Congreso.
