    "He closes against her all the avenues to wealth and distinction" - figurative language.

    Figurative language means that you use terms in their second or third meaning rather than their literal meaning. The meaning used is the figurative sense of the word. Here, the term "avenue" is not used literally as a large road, but as part of metaphor ("the avenues to wealth and distinction") for the jobs that might lead the female character to success.

    "He allows her in church, as well as State, but a subordinate position, claiming Apostolic authority for her exclusion from the ministry" - technical language.

    This sentence details what this character did exactly to the female character, and names the things using their real terminology, the one that people use in this particular field (church hierarchy). Such technical terms include: "Apostolic" and "ministry." The problem with technical language is that while it is more precise, it might be difficult to understand for people who don't know the field.

    "He has monopolized nearly all the profitable employments" - connotative language.

    A connotation is an implied meaning. It is a way to express something else by letting the reader interpret the author's words. Here, we can presume that because this character has made most profitable jobs unavailable, the female character will not be able to have a successful position in the church.
