Answer:

Our Town is considered a universal work of literature because

C) The theme of Our Town transcends time and location.

Explanation:

"Our Town" is a play by Thornton Wilder. It tells the story of Emily and George, daughter and son of two of the main families in the fictional town of Grover's Corners. The story begins in 1901 and covers a part of Emily and George's childhood. The two of them get married but Emily dies at childbirth. The lesson learned by Emily after her death is that the living have very little understanding of life and death, and are incapable of seizing and enjoying the moment.

The theme above is universal. Life and death, childhood and maturity, a deeper understanding of life and love, it can all revolve around characters who live anywhere in the world at any time period. It is not exclusive of certain people, countries, or cultures. Even if we did not know anything about the play, we could infer the answer due to the explanation offered in the question. Aristotle said literature indicates what is true for all times and ages. We were told to read Aristotle's saying before choosing an answer. Therefore, we can safely conclude the best option is C) The theme of Our Town transcends time and location.

Leviafan [203]

Hello. Although you have presented the text you have not asked the question to which this text is associated. Therefore, I will explain to you what is happening in this text and I hope that this can help you to answer your question.

This text is an excerpt from the play "Julio Cesar" written by Shakespeare. This passage is spoken by Brutus when he feels indignant that Cassius refused to lend him gold, so that he would be able to pay the members of his army. Brutus believes that Cassius is being selfish, as he has a lot of gold and lending a little would not be missed, especially to such a close friend. In this same excerpt, Brutus shows regret for having trusted Cassius' friendship and states that if the situation happened to the contrary he would never deny gold to a friend and would expect him to get gold through criminal or unethical practices such as exploiting peasants, such as Cassius told him to do it.
