Answer to Question 1

Every era and culture develops its own view of the human psyche and how it understands people and their motivations, and these views are reflected in the era's dramatic characters. For instance, ancient Greeks saw human action in a struggle with the gods, and the characters in the plays of this period often grapple with their desires and the gods' will. In the twentieth century, under the influence of Freud, human behavior was viewed as the result of the dark inner forces of repressed desire, and characters with more psychological complexity became common during this period.

Answer to Question 2

D. Novelists record records of people and events, poets respond to human life and
natural beauty, and playwrights replicate the actions of human beings.
