.... condition" (Backman, p.183). The critic goes on to note that men in Faulkner's works tend to undermine women and their roles in society. Women are oppressed and are usually controlled by men. The women try to fight the men in their society and are trying to find a way to escape from their grasps. They are hesitant to stand up to the men and instead they tend to hide away. Backman notes that, "The will to confront reality seems to be losing out to the need to escape"(p.184). Miss Emily is a woman who had the whole town wondering what she was doing, but did not allow anyone the pleasure of finding out. Once the men that she cared a .....

She refused to cry before and after the punishment: "I wouldn't let him see me cry, I was so enraged" (p.9). She continued to build a wall around herself to hide her emotions. Her pride interfered with many relationships in her life. When her brother Dan was dying, .....

.... logical place for an interruption would be at the end of the second section (Clark, 160-161); three, the passage is similar to that of the Host to Chaucer after his Tale of Melibee- which was an end comment, not an interruption ; and four, the structure and tone of the passage does not seem to be that of an interruption. In praising the Squire, the Franklin mentions how he is impressed with his "gentilly" (674) or "gentillesse" (694). If we are to believe what the Franklin is saying, that he admires his gentillesse and that he wishes his son "myghte lerne gentillesse aright" (694), we should also assume the Franklin would try and also show gentil .....
