The Ewells know that they are the lowest of the low amongst the whites in Maycomb. They have no money, no education, and no breeding. The single thing that elevates them at any level in the community is the fact that they're white. Like most people in similar situations, Bob and Mayella would like to better their station in life. However, Bob is unwilling to put forth the effort necessary to change his family's lot and Mayella doesn't have the resources to change her own life.

With her mother dead, Mayella becomes a surrogate wife for her father and mother for her younger siblings. The fact that Mayella wants a better life for herself is evidenced by the red geraniums she grows so lovingly — they're the only sign of beauty in a dismal, filthy shack and yard. She can't attend school because she has to take care of her younger siblings, especially when her father leaves on days-long drinking binges. She's involved in an incestuous and abusive relationship, but she doesn't have anywhere to go or anyone to help her. At 19, her future is set. She will most likely stay with her family, continuing to be both sexually and physically abused, until she marries and starts the cycle anew.

Unit 1, lesson 4 (page 3)
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Throughout women in colonial America, Anne Bradstreet was one of the strongest and most influential figures of the time. Mrs. Bradstreet lived from the years 1612-1672 not knowing that her life and works would inspire later generations. Ever since Anne was a little girl, her father, Thomas Dudley, would make Anne write poetry so they could read it together. Later, at the age of 16, Anne married future governor Simon Bradstreet, and the two boarded the Arbella ship to Plymouth, Massachusetts, accompanied by the famous sermon writer John Winthrop. Readers learn that Anne has a personal and formal writing voice. Anne became a well-known colonial writer not only by the way she writes, but also because she was a female (187).
