Question

The time and place in which a character lives are

A) the main struggles of human rights issues

B) part of the historical context of a story

C) mostly the result of guesswork by the readers

D) usually decided without great thought by the author

Answer 1

B) Part of the historical context of a story.

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of it as a book that talks about the history of America. It contains the time, and places of events that occur in the time it happened. Historical context comes to play when it comes to the time, place and events that happen. Without the context of time, and places, we would've just guess or wouldn't even know where it was located nor when it was established/happening.

Answer 2

B) part of the historical context of a story

Step-by-step explanation:

The time and place in which the story is set are giving us the historical context. By this, we can learn more about the circumstances in which characters live, about the problems they face, and historical events happening around them.

For example, if the story is happening in the United Kingdom in 1942. we already know that the context for it is World War II and the fight with Nazis. We can expect this story to have some connection with the war and the narrative of fighting, characters going through trauma and hardships, and having ideas and values of anglo-Saxon society.
