Answer:

Greece

Explanation:

In ancient Greece, the theatre was one of the most important parts of the culture and art, as they valued the spoken word. It started to develop around 600 years BC. Dramatic arts were a means to explore and understand life, humans, and gods. The main genres were comedy and tragedy.

Comedy was used to put a satirical and humorous perspective on everyday life and human trains. They would often exaggerate stories and features with the masks. Some of the most famous comedies are Lysistrata, The Clouds, and the Frogs.

Greek tragedies are older than the comedies and the oldest ones come from Athens. Tragedies explored stories of love, loss, pride, conflict with gods, and so on. Many of them were based on myths and dealt with ideas of abusing the rules, without even realizing them, and then suffering the punishment. Some of the most famous tragedies are Antigone, Electra, Medea, Helen, and Heracles.

One of the most important ideas of “Ozymandias” is the a. permanence of sculpted monuments. c. meaninglessness of earthly power.

castortr0y [4]

The poem "Ozymandias" written by Percy Busshe speaks in a traditional, simple manner how much the human aspiration to their power and material achievements and wealth provides for themselves an eternity. Thinking that their material, earthly power is immortal, tells how much they cheat themselves, in the inability to understand what is eternal. Even the Ozymandias's statue, which is material and transient, is decaying, more durable than them.

The answer is: C.
