Use details you remember from "A Jury of Her Peers" and the Spoon River Anthology epitaphs to explain how the literature of the time reflected some women's feelings of being trapped and oppressed by their husbands.

"valley of salt tears" and "dark, deep and foggy" are two images used to establish a mood of uncertainty and regret. this imagery is made up of sensory appeals to brings up   theological concerns of sin and retribution.

they conjure up the human   uncertainty about the divine and its relationship to the world.

you have so far written an informative essay (if you haven't then you might want to do that. look back at the lesson for guidance) answer the question but is it the best conclusion it can be? does it properly summarize the main subtopics of your essay? does it state in one or two sentences the “so what” of your topic. if your topic was abraham lincoln, your essay shouldn’t be just about abraham lincoln. it should answer, “so what about abraham lincoln? ”

revise your conclusion

hope this you!
