Read the excerpt from "Shakespeare's Sister and answer the question

English
1 answer:
Bumek [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. anticipating an objection her audience might have

D. making a counterargument

Explanation:

Virginia Woolf suggested the fictional idea of Shakespeare having an equally gifted sister. Through this, she wanted to show what would happen to her career and would she become as famous as her brother, all of that in order to show that women hadn't had equal opportunities as men, since the Renaissance to the 19th century. She also states that, women's purpose, regarded by society, was to stay at home, be hosewives and take care of the children. That way they couldn't earn money and provide for themselves. That was another obstacle for their career.

Here, in this excrept, we see that Woolf emphasizes the importance of material things in order for one tobecome famous poet. Stating this, she understands that manybwould disagree and she anticipates a potential objection to this claim ("...still you may say that the mind

should rise above such things; and that great poets have often been poor men."). Soon after this, she counterclaims this objection, stating a quoted evidence by Sir Arthur Quiller-Coach, a Professor of Literature ("The poor poet has not in these days, nor has had for two hundred years, a dog's chance...") to support her argument.
