Read the excerpt from part two of Trifles. COUNTY ATTORNEY. Oh, I guess they’re not very dangerous things the ladies have picked

up. (Moves a few things about, disturbing the quilt pieces which cover the box. Steps back.) No, Mrs. Peters doesn’t need supervising. For that matter, a sheriff’s wife is married to the law. Ever think of it that way, Mrs. Peters? Which of the following most accurately describes this excerpt? It is verbal irony because the County Attorney means precisely the opposite of what he is actually saying. It is dramatic irony because the audience knows that the County Attorney does not actually mean what he is saying. It is situational irony because the County Attorney has actually issued a relevant warning to Mrs. Peters without realizing it. It is not an example of any type of irony because the County Attorney is simply making a statement.

The sentence which most accurately describes the above excerpt is:

It is situational irony because the County Attorney has actually issued a relevant warning to Mrs. Peters without realizing it.

In the one-act play “Trifles,” Susan Glaspell has highlighted many of the important ills of the society that a woman had to face. She speaks about all the above-mentioned themes in her play. The discrimination that a woman faces in this male-centric society which leads her to the world of isolation is the main theme of the play. She talks about the nature of males towards females and the way they mock at them. A women’s craving desire to live and think freely in this society has a reoccurring aspect throughout the play. Trifles give an account of the farm life in the early twentieth century and especially about the life of women working in the farms. About justice and judgment, this play has a lot to tell. It speaks about the laws which have been made by the men and how women had to follow them too. Men had never asked women to become a part of the decisions that they have been taking. Though women had to accept such laws and punishments which the prejudiced society asks them to do.
