Answer:

Explanation:

A personal definition of comedy is a funny experience or situation portrayed in order to make people laugh. Comedy on the dictionaries has several meanings, one of them being humorous entertainment. However, in literature the meaning might vary; it is true that comedies can have comical elements, but the literary convention is different. A Shakespearean comedy is a theatrical representation that deals with humorosly confusing, ridiculous situations in which the main characters end in marriage. It is of importance to mention that a comedy starts with averse circumstances and end in happiness.

Answer:

Please read the explanation/ discussion below:

Explanation:

The woman suffrage movement began in 1848, when a women’s rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, New York. For the next 50 years, woman suffrage supporters worked to educate the public about the validity of woman suffrage. And in 1920, due to the collaborated efforts of National Women’s Party (NWP) and National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA), the 19th Amendment was ratified. It was the single largest extension of democratic voting rights in our nation’s history, and it was achieved peacefully, through democratic processes.

Susan B. Anthony, an American social reformer and human rights activist who played a pivotal role in the women's suffrage movement said, “We ask justice, we ask equality, we ask all the civil and political rights that belong to citizens of the United States, be guaranteed to us and our daughters forever.” Women, across the globe has fought for the fundamental rights that include the right to live free from slavery, violence, and discrimination; to be educated; to vote; to own property and to earn a fair and equal wage. Unfortunately, what is termed as Women Right is basically nothing more than what every individual human being is entitles for.  

The same was proposed in the Equal Rights Amendment that stated, “Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged be the United States or by any State on account of sex”.

oksian1 [2.3K]
I believe that the best answer for this question would be B, "her own." She and Death stop at a burial ground for her, which is marked with a headstone. This entire poem is about her dealing with Death after passing away. She views the world from a distant perspective and eventually life from a distant perspective. Hope this helps.
