The Martian Chronicles is a science fiction fix-up, published in 1950, by American writer Ray Bradbury that chronicles the settlement of Mars, the home of indigenous Martians, by Americans leaving a troubled Earth that is eventually devastated by nuclear war.
The correct answer is B. Virgil
Explanation:
Virgil was a Roman poet that lived during the period Augustus reigned, who was the first emperor in Rome. This poet is mainly known for his poems the Eclogues and the Georgics that deal with different aspects of agriculture and rural life and the epic poem the Aeneid that tells the story of a warrior called Aeneas. These literary works made him one of the greatest poets in Rome during the historical period he lived and even centuries after his death as his poems were widely studied during late antiquity in Rome and during the Middle Ages. This means, the poet that was not an ancient Greek poet was Virgil as he was born in the Rome Empire and developed all his literary works in it, also, other poets such as Sappho, Virgil and Homer are part of the Greek literature and therefore they are all Greek poets.
