Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

The Stanislavsky style of acting was characterized by psychological realism, in which actors draw on their own experiences and emotions to create not just a character but a complex human being with true emotions and desires. The work of Darwin and Freud influenced this style by forcing us to contemplate our place in the world and the motivations that move us through it. Ibsen influenced this approach with his thought-provoking plays featuring complex and truly human characters.
