Jared's assignment is to write a counter-argument to Sewell's claim as written in paragraph 1 of "The Selling of Joseph." He is

planning to write in the form of a pamphlet as Sewell did, using the punctuation, capitalization, spelling and semantics that were in common use in 1700. Which statement best explains these differences that can be noted in this excerpt?
A.) The excerpt uses the special rules of English punctuation, capitalization, and spelling that were in use at the time of King James and were therefore common in the KJV Bible.
B.) The excerpt was written by a man who was very knowledgeable about Biblical facts, but was likely bilingual and did not have understanding of correct English usage.
C.) The excerpt contains words that are capitalized because they are used as proper nouns and their emphasis is altered accordingly.
D.) The excerpt uses the conventions of standard English grammar that was in use at the time that the article was written.

Answer:

The correct answer is D) The excerpt uses the conventions of standard English grammar that was in use at the time that the article was written.

Explanation:

English language has changed a lot from Old English until our current language. Even though it may seem strange or special, the solicited text will comply with the conventions of standard English grammar at the time. One of the most obvious changes will be the use of -th instead of -s when forming 3rd person forms: hath - has.

How does oppressive nature of gender roles relate to the setting in the yellow wallpaper?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The narrator of “The Yellow Wallpaper” is confined as much by her gender as by her illness. Her description of writing as “work” and her inability to engage with her child imply a desire to move outside of the domestic sphere. That desire is re framed as a symptom of her illness by the men surrounding her, and she is confined to a former nursery for her period of recovery. The presence of her baby boy in the house poses the threat of continued confinement even after her recovery, when the narrator will presumably relocate from her nursery to his. Only the narrator’s madness releases her from her husband’s expectations, showing the extent of the oppression which confined late 19th-century women into specific societal roles.  

During the late 19th century, adult women in society were sharply defined as mothers, wives, caretakers, and housekeepers. They were expected to act like the narrator’s sister-in-law, Jennie, managing households and children while their husbands worked in professions and enjoyed relative freedom. Women like the narrator—and Gilman herself—who wanted to work outside of the home encountered opposition not only from their families but also from society at large. The subtlety through which this oppression is enacted can be seen through the narrator’s relationships with both her husband, John, and also with Jennie. Though Jennie isn’t a man or a doctor, she upholds societal expectations for women by taking over the narrator’s household duties and monitoring her behavior in John’s absence.  

Since the narrator is unable to perform the social functions of a wife and mother, John relegates her to a liminal space between adulthood and childhood. She finds herself stripped of any responsibility or stimulation, and her husband’s frequent absences from the home deny her a true and consistent caretaker of her own. On one level, her situation speaks to the systemic...
