Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is false that the short story is considered an American creation. In fact, short stories have existed since Antiquity, and this makes it one of the oldest genres of literature. Short stories originally developed in oral form in most civilizations across the world. Some of the earliest short stories we know of are the ones belonging to the Indian epics (the <em>Ramayana</em> and the <em>Mahabharata</em>) and the Homeric epics (<em>The Odyssey</em> and <em>The Illiad</em>).

The correct answer of the given statement above would be FALSE. It is not true that the short story is usually considered an American creation.  The Italian Matteo Bandello is one of the 'novella' 's precursor. However, short stories date back to Aesop old times when orality or discourse was the basic means of communication. Hope this answer helps. Have a great day!

Which key details best support the main idea in this paragraph? Select three options. “…’Death and the Goose Boy’ was omitted be
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The key details that best support the main idea in this paragraph are 1, 4 and 5

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

The Brothers Grimm: Jacob Ludwig Karl and Wilhelm Carl, are German academics, philologists, and authors who published folklore.

Read the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale."

Though it is impossible to clarify fully why certain tales were deleted or placed in footnotes in later editions, we do know that "Death and the Goose Boy” was omitted because of its baroque literary features; "The Strange Feast,” because of its close resemblance to "Godfather Death”; "The Stepmother,” because of its fragmentary nature and cruelty; and "The Faithful Animals,” because it came from the Siddhi-Kür, a collection of Mongolian tales. From the first edition in 1812/1815 to the final one in 1857, the Grimms received numerous versions of tales already in their collection and new tales from strangers, friends, and colleagues, and they often decided to replace one tale with another version, to delete some of the tales, or to include variants in their footnotes.

Which key details best support the main idea in this paragraph? Select three options.

  • 1 “…’Death and the Goose Boy’ was omitted because of its baroque literary features;”
  • 2 “From the first edition in 1812/1815 to the final one in 1857…”
  • 3 “…‘The Strange Feast’ [was omitted] because of its close resemblance to ‘Godfather Death;’”
  • 4 “’The Stepmother’ [was omitted] because of its fragmentary nature and cruelty;”
  • 5 “…’The Faithful Animals’ [was omitted] because it came from the Siddhi-Kür….”
