Explanation:

Indirect characterization is a literary device that authors use to reveal a character's personality through dialogues, thoughts, behaviors, actions, the description of their appearance, people's reaction to the character, their interaction with other characters and the context the character is in, in other words, without making direct statement about the character's personality or traits. Thus, if a reader wants to analyze a character using indirect characterization, he or she should take into account all these elements.
