Letter to Her Daughter

Consider Lady Montagu’s use of logic and details from life to support her argument about her granddaughter’s need to conceal her knowledge. Evaluate the strength of Montagu’s persuasive techniques. Then write a brief essay relating the situation described in the letter to situations in modern life. How have relations between the sexes changed since Montagu’s day? Are there still situations in which people of both sexes purposely conceal their knowledge, and if so, what are they? Use logic and strong evidence to support your assertions.
