Answer:
C. An individual's place in the world is determined by his or her environment.
Explanation:
Dunbar describes what is it like being a black male in the 1800s America in his poem Sympathy. He gives a metaphor to the caged bird and how deadly the bird wants to get out after it sees a beautiful landscape.
Stephen Crane's A Man Said to the Universe shows the significance of the existence. And this is the existence of a human-being. This human-being is an individual and the poem is about his conversation with the universe. The man wants a recognition from the universe.
The summaries show that the correct answer is the third one - an individual’s place in the world is determined by his or her environment. Indeed, in both poems individual challenging is present.
Hope this helps!
