Final answer:

Alliteration in 'Eve's Apology in Defense of Women' is characterized by the repetition of initial consonant sounds in adjacent words, as seen in the provided excerpt with repetitions like 'an' and 'al' sounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

An example of alliteration in Eve's Apology in Defense of Women can be seen in the excerpt provided from the last sentence: "Each one answering the call of her own wise het." Here, the repetition of the 'an' sound in "answering" and "anfash," and the 'al' sound in "call" and "alcee," exhibits the use of alliteration, a literary device characterized by the repetition of the same consonant sounds at the beginning of closely connected words.

Another extract which is likely to contain alliteration is the thesis statement provided, but without the exact phrase from Garrison's text, it is difficult to identify specific examples of alliteration.

The last excerpt also seems to imply the use of alliteration in the phrase "Poor, fettered, and sealed Hagars," where the 'f' sound in "fettered" and 's' sound in "sealed" can tentatively suggest alliteration, although without additional context or adjoining text it's not possible to confirm.
