Bridget's feedback:

"You've chosen some really compelling examples and narrate them with energy and good control to ensure summary doesn't overwhelm the discussion. I notice the paragraph on hospitality only uses one example and focuses on Roman culture; take a look at your first body paragraph, including the argumentation and use of evidence, and brainstorm how to build that second body paragraph out so it matches in strength the first.

The body paragraphs are pretty long, and the conclusion seems to have collided with the hospitality discussion. I suggest, at the very least, separating those concluding sentences so they can have their own paragraph -- this will really help the reader out; I also see opportunities to break the body paragraphs down into more focused and shorter paragraphs that can help indicate to the reader the nuances of your discussion."
