Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Lessing's play Nathan the Wise reflected the values of the Enlightenment with its theme of religious tolerance. Beaumarchais' The Marriage of Figaro questions aristocrats' place in society, attacks politicians and the sale of public offices, and criticizes the poor treatment of women in a male dominated society.
