A Rose for EmilyA Rose For Emily is told by an unnamed girl that she is a beauty. The words are from a diary by the same name, which is said in the town of Jefferson, Mississippi. On their return to Jefferson, Emily finds that the girl is “in love with a black man who is going bankrupt and she wants to be in Jefferson.” She and Homer are to decide if they will marry, but the question of the next day’s marriage is settled in this essay. This essay is part of a series, “A Rose for Emily,” published over a year later, by the Women of Jefferson Women’s Studies Association.
An essay by a young scholar at the school, Mireya-Shariv.
A post-modern woman has been brought to justice by her parents. Written in a time of political conflict between the ancient Egyptians and modern feminists, the essay, written on March 15, 1915, says a lot about its creator and the way it is read today, which is understandable given the fact that some young writers today claim that the essay made them and their parents unhappy. Unfortunately the essay may be an old and stale one, but it should be a reminder of the time’s challenges of a new era. By using a broad range of feminist works she finds inspiration in such things as the work of Anne Siderot, who is not only the author of “Walking Through Fire,” but also the author of both “Love & Magic” as well.
A post-modern man has been brought to justice by his wife, Sinead. Written during a time of war, she made a new life by taking on military service, which would have given her new life as a woman. She is accused of a treasonous crime and sentenced to death. Her story was told in a piece by a teacher named Gertrude Leech. Sinead is one of most respected young women I’ve met. And, well, she’s got all the pieces in place to start a new life. For those who believe in change then, an essay by a young woman named Pina Sinead was the perfect way of saying goodbye.
“One day I will not be alone in this way. I don’t give a fuck about anything.”
“I could never tell if this was true or not, but it is true.”
“I will never forget this day.”
“A beautiful, innocent, peaceful women has been brought to justice. . . . For a great reason: There can be no life without the struggle of the soul, the struggle of the resistance from the abyss to the living.”
And all that is good is a whole lot better!”
“I think my life will end without me.”

“I’m glad to have friends that I know, that I live with, and that all of these good neighbors are important and I don’t want a big social circle or some place where all the bad guys meet. Just a bunch of people that really care about good things, and don’t really need support. Not me, not people in any way. I’m just all about my family.” ―Sara [src]
Following the Battle of Fort Burywood in 1861, Sara learned of her father’s death with some vague information about Bart who had committed a kidnapping, which led authorities to a place in which she did meet Bart. The night before the kidnapping, Sara was told by Bart that she was pregnant with Emily, a half-Mormon, half-Muslim, half-American, who was supposedly a prophetess. During the search, authorities found some parchment that was written using the pen name of a “Drew G. Bart”. Sara, along with Bart, was told she could be sent to the Phoenix Temple to receive these two.
While being searched, authorities received information about a group of outlaws. Sara learned that some of the “dead people” were in a prison and were attempting to leave the city. They did locate Emily’s mother but were stopped by a Sheriff. Sheriff Abraham was skeptical and offered to help with the search after his “stolen” child, “Emily,” returned to his old home. Before he could rescue Emily, authorities apprehended her daughter, and that allowed authorities to find the diary entry for Emily and the other members of the Bitterbark Gang. When they discovered the secret journal that could help them retrieve Emily’s diary entry, they were told by their Sheriff to come outside and meet the group in the Phoenix Temple at The Rock near Camp Ollin.
When they came upon Emily’s diary entry, they found a copy of it. While searching for the page, the sheriff revealed that the diary entry was hidden in the diary of a “sister of Ezra.” Although she was worried about her husband’s personal safety, Sara learned that Ezra had married Emma’s cousin Hannah. After her meeting with Ezra, she found that she had become aware of the location and his connection to Ezra and the gang. She then found out that “the man who found Emily said that she would go with him to do quests of their house.” To allow her to remain safe, she made sure to get Emily all her books, including a chapter entitled “Daughters of Ezra”, to read. Though Sara felt so close with Ezra, she had already left so Ezra and all his family members who belonged to the gang were forced to leave. When she saw Hanna’s picture in her notebook, she realized that she wasn’t “helpless” and that Ezra had helped her flee and had married Emily. The next day, in the basement of the Phoenix Temple, Ezra led his followers to hide Emily and Ezra’s diary entry in their car. Just as they were about to leave, they heard a muffled knocking on the doors. The only thing they heard was something knocking from the back. Then one moment, they

To the outside world it might have been as hard as it was to track people down. In some ways it’s almost poetic: a woman loses her virginity, a man loses his, an old lady loses her virginity, a man gets married, a boy and a girl have their own affairs, a man gets married, a kid takes his girlfriend back to his place, and a boy and a girl become friends, for only a little after being married.

Emily became a very stubborn old lady who refused to pay her taxes due to a tale that Colonel Sartoris who was the mayor at the time had told her. According to Sartoris, her father had lent the town some money, and therefore all of her taxes were remitted. Miss Emily would manage to make her self disappear for a certain period of time. This would cause people to talk because no one would know where she was or what she was doing. When her father had died people called and dropped by the house to give Miss Emily their condolences. She told them that he was not dead and that he was still alive. She refused
