The playwright wants to illustrate fear to the audience because they fear the anger of Dryas and so he was put into prison for that reason, but maybe sadness as well because of the reason he was send to jail.
This wonderful speech given twice (the last time in the middle of the civil war) by Sojourner Truth, emphasized and pleads for the right of women to be recognized as women. This mother of 13 [who saw most of her children sold into slavery] is not pleading for equality and voting rights. She is pleading for decency.
The whole speech is very moving. You might want to look it up.
C
Realist literature focuses on being in tune with the aspects of reality and daily life.
I was thinking between either C or D but D seems to make more sense to me.
