Answer:

  1. This took place in the medieval times. I can infer this because women were still supposed to act a certain way. Not only that, but the guillotine was still being.
  2. The plot of the story is that Carpenters tried to take advantage of Goody Hibbins's wealth, so they overcharged her. She decided to take legal actions against them, and she won. which was a problem in society.
  3. She was falsely accused and her only crime is "having more wits than her neighbor".

andrew11 [14]

If you are referring to this point: Oscar Wilde uses humor to critique society and show that there is too much concern about coming from a proper family.

I believe the correct answer is: “To be born, or at any rate bred, in a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”

 

     In his dramatic work “The Importance of Being Earnest”, Oscar Wild often uses irony and humor to critique the norms and “moral” of the society in Victorian era. One of the examples for that is this line:

“To be born, or at any rate bred, in a hand-bag, whether it had handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life . . .”

     As it shows the needless concern of the type of the bag Ernest was found in, but which indicate the wealth of the family to Lady Bracknell. Ernest states that there is no contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life when you are born in a hand-bag, no matter if it was large, black leather hand-bag, with handles to it or not.
