Answer 2

3, 1, 2 & 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1642 the Long Parliament ordered a closure of the London theatres.

John Milton published Aeropagitica (an essay defending freedom of the press) in 1644.

King Charles I was beheaded in 1649 during the English Civil War.

Behn became a popular playwright with her most popular play The Rover, part I in 1677. There's a sort of controversy about who was the first English woman to make her living as a professional writer. Lady Elizabeth Cary and Margaret Cavendish may have started their careers as playwrights earlier that century.
