Answer:

The answer is D) Philosophy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The story of “Pyramus and Thisbe” is narrated by Ovid in “The metamorphosis”. This last-mentioned contains pieces of philosophical thinking. Its name comes from the thought that everything under the sky goes through changes. In other words, everything goes from a state to another. In the case of “Pyramus and Thisbe” the philosophy is detachment from one's own existence for the love of the other.
