How are story characters a reflection on their time?
Characters act the way their writer imagines them acting - that means that they act the way people around the writer would act, or the way people in the past might have acted. You can only imagine behavior you are familiar with, so you can tell a lot about the writer's time period by seeing how his or her characters act.
Why were Shakespeare's female roles never in the last act?
Shakespeare's female characters frequently make it to the last act. This is especially true in the comedies, where the last act ends with all of the female characters getting married. As You Like It features a female character, Rosalind, who is the last person on stage. Among the tragedies, female characters do not make it to the last act of Macbeth or Julius Caesar. The female parts in Caesar are only bit parts anyway. Gertrude and Desdemona make it to the last acts of their respective plays only to die in them. Volumnia is instrumental in the last act of Coriolanus, and Lear's daughters make a mass exit in the last act of King Lear. The history plays are more hit-and-miss. The last Act of Henry V, however, is all about Henry and Katherine, and she is there to the end. Basically, just because Lady Macbeth doesn't appear in the last act, you can't draw conclusions about all of Shakespeare's female characters. Remember, Duncan and Banquo don't make it to the last act either.
