Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "A cycle of history".

Explanation:

The poem “The Second Coming” by W. B. Yeats describes the horrible atmosphere of post-war Europe by using allegories of the Apocalypse and Second Coming as described in the Bible. The first two lines of the poem are "Turning and turning in the widening gyre" and "The falcon cannot hear the falconer". In the first line the gyre is a cycle of history at which people keeps turning without noticing that war is dangerously near, as falcon that keeps turning without hearing the falconer.

Explain the use of narrative structure in "A Jury of Her Peers," focusing particularly on the notion of "resolution." How does t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

"A Jury of Her Peers'' was written by Susan Glaspell. She employs a narrative tone to describe the story. The resolution forms part of the story and it's where the story ends. It is at this point that conflicts are resolved and the story comes to an end. The plot was considered as a feminist literature because two female characters were trying to come up with a solution to a mystery. Mrs Hale and Mrs Peters came up with the conclusion that Mrs Wright killed her husband, and her actions are justified. The circumstances behind the death of John Wright leaves the townsmen  in a state of confusion as to what could have led to his death. Mrs Wright killed her husband because she was physically abused by her. Mrs Hale and Mrs Peters hide the evidence against her because they understand how it feels to be humiliated and oppressed by a man. In the end, Mrs Wright is granted freedom.
