Jaylen is reading an essay comparing two poems, and she has come across a missing word.

A Postmodernist poem about art may not rhyme, and it may employ unconventional grammar and spelling. A ______ poem about art, however, will likely follow an established format and be modeled after ancient Greek and Roman poetry.

Choose the term that best completes the sentence.


Modernist


Realist


Classicist


Romanticist

I believe the answer is classicist, since they usually "follow" certain rules or "established format[s]".
Hope this helps! :)

The correct answer is C. Classicist

Step-by-step explanation:

The Classicism in arts including literature is a movement that aims at following the standards and patterns of the Classical period especially those of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greece, because of this, the Classicist in terms of poetry follows a specific format or standard that is considered ideal different to movements such as modernism and postmodernism in which structure and format are more flexible. This implies if the second poem follows an established format and also includes elements of Greek and Roman poetry this poem is a classicist poem.
