Read the passage from "marriage is a private affair" by chinua achebe.

"i shall not call in a native doctor.” nnaemeka’s father was known to be obstinately ahead of his more superstitious neighbours in these matters. "i will not be another mrs. ochuba. if my son wants to kill himself let him do it with his own hands. it is not for me to him.”

"but it was her fault,” said madubogwu. "she ought to have gone to an honest herbalist. she was a clever woman, nevertheless.”

"she was a wicked murderess,” said jonathan who rarely argued with his neighbours because, he often said, they were incapable of reasoning. "the medicine was prepared for her husband, it was his name they called in its preparation and i am sure it would have been perfectly beneficial to him. it was wicked to put it into the herbalist’s food, and say you were only trying it out.”

which statement bestdescribes how a feminist analysis and a historical analysis of this excerpt would differ?

a historical analysis would focus on how the men discuss mrs. ochuba. a feminist analysis would focus on whether using a native doctor was considered superstitious at the time and place the story depicts.
a feminist analysis would most likely focus on the characters in the story, and a historical analysis would most likely focus on the plot.
