Use the image above to answer the following question:

the picture depicts a camp meeting during the second great awakening. how might a woman attending the meeting feel? (5 points)

angry that she is only allowed to watch but not participate

frustrated about having to keep her excitement to herself

inspired to renew her religion and engage in social reform

embarrassed that she is required to confess her sins in public

The following remarks apply to the second awakening.

No religious leader would preach anger without some redeeming feature that was a counterbalance.  The theology was based upon Romantic Ideals.

I'm pretty sure some women felt frustrated, but most who attended believed in the Bible's Vision of the order of things. The responsibility of the headship principles likely influenced how women were supposed to feel. They wouldn't at that point, make the argument that women were not second class citizens. That argument came later, although some women, like Abigail Adams would see that women's rights were important. She would not go to something like the Second Awakening.

I'm not sure how to get rid of D, but I don't think the romantic ideal would not make that requirement. I wouldn't choose D.

The best answer is C. Slavery was a large issue prior to the civil war. It was the emotional impetus that made the civil war possible. Social reform meant attention to slavery.  The first part of C is also true. The point of the Second Awakening was make people enthusiastic about religion.
