What best describes characterization?

English

Softa [21]4 years ago

The correct answer is the last one - the way a character is presented and developed. That is quite literally the definition of characterization. The other examples are indeed parts of characterization, but the last option encompasses them all.

The correct answer is: the way a character is presented and developed.

Indeed, characterization is one of the pillars of storytelling. There are two types of characterization: explicit and implicit. Explicit characterization involves the explicit description of the moral, intellectual and physical qualities of a character. It can be performed by the narrator, another character or even the said character himself/herself.

Implicit characterization is conveyed to the audience/readers by the use and description of mannerisms, speech patterns, word choice, physical gestures, actions, interactions with the other characters and the physical appearance. It is up to the audience/readers to interpret and infer the nature and motivations of the character through these.

Read the sentence. Since its establishment in 1961, the Peace Corps has helped countless people build better lives for themselve
GREYUIT [131]
Assuming the italicized clause is <em>Since its establishment, </em>the correct answer here is elliptical clause.
Elliptical means that a word which would normally be part of a sentence is excluded, usually for stylistic reasons. Here, the verb is missing, which is why it is elliptical. The question is oddly formulated too - given that there is no verb here, it cannot be a clause, but rather a phrase, but since there is no such option here, then the correct answer is elliptical clause.

which modernist ideas are in this famous passage? check the four best choices. despair and disillusionment: feeling that life is
den301095 [7]

The appropriate responses are options 1, 2, 3, and 5.

Explanation:

Between World Wars I and II, American modernist literature predominated in the country's literary landscape. The modernist era focused on innovation in poetry and prose's structure and language, as well as writing on current issues including racial inequality, gender, and the human condition.

Many American modernist authors who were influenced by the First World Combat investigated the psychological wounds and spiritual scars of the war experience. The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, which was published in the early 1930s, is one example of how the American economic crisis affected literature. As employees became invisible in the backdrop of city life, unnoticed cogs in a machine that ached for self-definition, a linked concern is the loss of self and the yearning for self-definition. The mid-nineteenth-century emphasis on "creating a self"—a concept exemplified by Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby—was mirrored by American modernists. As seen by The Emperor Jones by Eugene O'Neill, The Battler by Ernest Hemingway, and That Evening Sun by William Faulkner, madness and its manifestations appear to be another popular modernist topic. 

But despite all these drawbacks, real people and the fictitious characters of American modernist literature both sought new beginnings and had new hopes and goals.
