Pericles was a leader and lawmaker in ancient Athens. While Athens was fighting the Peloponnesian War, he gave a famous speech c

alled the Funeral Oration. In his speech, he talked about Athenian democracy. Read the following excerpt from Pericles’s speech: Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighboring states; we are rather a pattern to others than imitators ourselves. Its administration favors the many instead of the few. . . . If we look to the laws, they afford equal justice to all in their private differences…class considerations not being allowed to interfere with merit; nor again does poverty bar the way, if a man is able to serve the state, he is not hindered by the obscurity of his condition. Based on the excerpt above, how does Pericles feel about Athenian democracy?

Answer:

A) One specific example of how a change in the rights or roles of women from 1800 to the present corresponds to the argument made in the text is that women can now run for public office. This connects to how the author describes how women are just as capable and valuable as men.

B) Another specific example of how a change in the rights or roles of women from 1800 to the present corresponds to the argument made in the text is that women can get a post-secondary education now.
