Answer:

rather than performed), written in blank verse by the Roman Stoic philosopher Seneca in the 1st century AD. Rediscovered by Italian humanists in the mid-16th century, they became the models for the revival of tragedy on the Renaissance stage. The two great, but very different, dramatic traditions of the age—French Neoclassical tragedy and Elizabethan tragedy—both drew inspiration from Seneca.

Seneca’s plays were reworkings chiefly of Euripides’ dramas and also of works of Aeschylus and Sophocles. Probably meant to be recited at elite gatherings, they differ from their originals in their long declamatory, narrative accounts of action, their obtrusive moralizing, and their bombastic rhetoric. They dwell on detailed accounts of horrible deeds and contain long reflective soliloquies. Though the gods rarely appear in these plays, ghosts and witches abound. In an age when the Greek originals were scarcely known, Seneca’s plays were mistaken for high Classical drama. The Renaissance scholar J.C. Scaliger (1484–1558), who knew both Latin and Greek, preferred Seneca to Euripides.

French Neoclassical dramatic tradition, which reached its highest expression in the 17th-century tragedies of Pierre Corneille and Jean Racine, drew on Seneca for form and grandeur of style. These Neoclassicists adopted Seneca’s innovation of the confidant (usually a servant), his substitution of speech for action, and his moral hairsplitting.

Sergio039 [100]

The fact that communication involves choices has powerful implications, and it also involves risk.

Communication carries two risks: the exposure of the way we really are and the possibility of becoming different. "Few of us find it easy to take these risks. This is why effective interpersonal communication requires both inner security and personal courage."

Read the passage from Utopia.
madam [21]

The passage that best summarizes the central idea is D. they do not rashly engage in war, unless it be either to defend themselves or their friends from any unjust aggressors, or, out of good nature.

The whole excerpt tells us that Utopians despise war but, nevertheless, train for it and engage in it in certain scenarios. Passage D is the only one that tells us both these things: that they don't like war but engage in it sometimes.
