The woman's rights movement is now more strongly organized and has penetrated the society. There are many causes for this: women's greater freedom of activity; more vigorous training in self-reliance and responsibility; more significant superiority in numbers of women in Germanic countries, which has forced women to adopt business or professional callings other than domestic. However, North America is the cradle of the woman's rights movement. It was the War of Independence of the colonies against England (1774-1783) that matured the woman's rights movement. In the name of "freedom," this cause entered the history of the world.In these troubled times, the American women had, by energetic activities and unyielding suffering, entirely fulfilled their duty as citizens, and at the Convention in Philadelphia, in 1787, they demanded as citizens the right to vote. The Constitution of the United States was being drawn up at that time, and by 1789 had been ratified by the thirteen states then existing. In nine of these states, the right to vote in municipal and state affairs had hitherto been exercised by all "free-born citizens" or all "taxpayers" and "heads of families," the state constitutions being based on the principle: no taxation without representation. Among these "free-born citizens," "taxpayers," and "heads of families," there were naturally many women who were consequently both voters and active citizens. So woman's right to vote in the above-named states was practically established before 1783. Only the states of Virginia and New York had restricted the suffrage to males in 1699 and 1777, Massachusetts and New Hampshire following their example in 1780 and 1784. In view of this retrograde movement, American women attempted at the Convention in Philadelphia to secure a recognition of their civil rights through the Constitution of the whole federation of states. But the Convention refused this request; just as before, it left the conditions of suffrage to be determined by the individual states. To be sure, in the draft of the Constitution the Convention in no way opposed woman's suffrage. But the nine states which formerly, as colonies, had practically given women the right to vote, had in the meantime abrogated1 this right through the insertion of the word "man" in their election laws, and the first attempt of the American women to secure an expressed constitutional recognition of their rights as citizens failed. These proceedings gave to the woman's rights movement of the United States a political character from the very beginning. Since then, the American women have labored untiringly for their political emancipation. The anti-slavery movement gave them an excellent opportunity to participate in public affairs. Since the women had had experience of oppression and slavery, and since they, like negroes, were struggling for the recognition of their "human rights," they were amongst the most zealous opponents of "slavery," and belonged to the most enthusiastic defenders of "freedom" and "justice." Among the Quakers, who played a very prominent part in the anti-slavery movement, man and woman had the same rights in all respects in the home and church. When the first anti-slavery society was formed in Boston in 1832, twelve women immediately became members. . . . The principle of the equality of the sexes, which the Quakers held, was opposed by the majority of the population, who held to the Puritanic principle of woman's subordination to man. In consequence of this principle, it was at that time considered "monstrous" that a woman should speak from a public platform. Even the educated classes shared the prejudice against woman. To them she was a "human being of the second order."Which two statements can be used as part of a summary of the passage? I.) In order to create history, American women decided to fight for their rights. II.) To teach a lesson to the educated masses about slavery and the importance of suffrage, women decided to fight for their rights.III.) American women decided to help fight for the rights of others in order to gain a political platform. IV.) The Constitution had granted women certain rights as citizens, but states worked to deny women the ability to voteV.) American women relentlessly fought for their civil rights and the right to vote since the time of the War of Independence.

Read the poem and think about what the theme is.At the Aquarium
by Max Eastman

Serene the silver fishes glide,
Stern-lipped, and pale, and wonder-eyed!
As through the aged deeps of ocean,
They glide with wan and wavy motion.
They have no pathway where they go,
They flow like water to and fro,
They watch with never-winking eyes,
They watch with staring, cold surprise,
The level people in the air,
The people peering, peering there:
Who wander also to and fro,
And know not why or where they go,
Yet have a wonder in their eyes,
Sometimes a pale and cold surprise.

One theme of the poem is
A. people should accept people for who they are.
B. people and animals are not so different after all.
C. aquariums are jails for fish and should not exist.
D. fish in aquariums enjoy looking at the people.

Please comment the letter and include an explanation if possible. I want to know why that is the answer you chose.

Answers

Answer:

The best answer to your question: One theme of the poem is:___, would be B: people and animals are not so different after all.

Explanation:

"At the Aquarium" is short poem that was written by American poet and philosopher Max Eastman and which was later on published in the Modern American Poetry in 1919.

Although the poem may have other themes, one that really comes to the forefront of the whole thing is the comparisson that arises, or rather the similarity that arises, between the fish in the aquarium, who are being stared at by people, and the people themselves, whose activities seem to be no different, their actions and reactions also, to those of the fish. For example, at first the speaker tells us that the fish "they watch with staring, cold surprise..." then, the poet also says about people: " Yet have a wonder in their eyes, Sometimes a pale and cold surprise." Another similarity that appears in the poem and that shows that people and animals are not so different after all is when both species are said to be wondering around, without a clear path, or without knowing where they are going; only that both are moving back and forth, both in a "to and fro" motion.

I could be wrong, but I think B or A, because the people at this aquarium are doing things similar to the fish, yet instead of just looking, they have looks of shock and/or surprise on their faces, even though we are all living things on this planet.
