The correct answer is E. To show how the consequences have changed or remained the same over time
Step-by-step explanation:
Modernist literature was the literature that emerged after the 19th century, whose main characteristics was the use of alternative ways of writing that differ from the traditional ones, because of this most modernist author uses experimental techniques and avoid traditional ones. Also, in terms of themes and topic modernists writers support genres such as futurism, surrealism or expressionism that allow them to reflect on issues that belong to the modern era, but also to reflect about traditional themes such as love, war or greed in the modern era, which allow them to determine the way these traditional themes have changed or remain during time. Therefore, both a modernist and a writer from the age of reason (17th century) can write a book about greed or a similar theme, but the modernist writer would do it "to show how the consequences have changed or remained the same over time".
