3. Verismo: Italian opera that depicts realistic (and sometimes violent) events of everyday life; tends to focus specifically on the lives of the lower class.

4. tragedie en musique: a form of French opera; distinguishing features are dance music and choral writing.

16. Which of the following statements most accurately describe the opinion of

timurjin [86]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ Without \ a \ Bill \ of \ Rights, \ the \ national \ government \ will \ become \ a \ tyranny}}$

Explanation:

The Anti-Federalists were opposed to strong government. They were mainly "ordinary citizens" and farmers. Some key members were Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry.

Their core beliefs included:

A strict Constitutional interpretation

A general fear of one centralized government. They championed state governments and a small republic.

Opposition of the Constitution (they wanted to preserve the Articles of Confederation, because they aligned with Anti-Federalist beliefs)
A Bill of Rights to protect the people's individual freedoms that could be threatened by strong governmental influence

So, based on the Anti-Federalist beliefs, they would not want to give the national government more power through taxation (choice A) or a national currency (choice B).

They also would despise a large republic (choice D). as they favored smaller government.

However, they did fight for a Bill of Rights, hoping it could protect the people from a too-powerful government. Choice C is correct.
