哈喽,这道题我被绕进去好久,结果跳出来一看,其实很简单。。。吐血
首先看artificial distinction的主语是哪个——the dramatic tragedies,而其代表人物便是Dryden。
原文中,“As prescribed by Dryden, tragedy was supposed to concern a heroic man who is a public figure and who undergoes a fall that evokes pity from the audience. Carnell points out that Behn’s tragic novels focus instead on the plight of little-known women and the private world of the household; even in her few novels featuring male protagonists, Behn insists on the importance of the crimes these otherwise heroic figures commit in the domestic sphere. 从对比中可看出,传统悲剧只着眼公共视角下的男主角,于是答案呼之欲出,为D。
其实这道题用排除法更好做,因为其他答案实在太不靠谱了——前提是把问题、artificial的施动者、主体argument的大概倾向都弄清楚。。。
A 并没有different structral models,相反,从mirror一词看出,是相近的
B passive obedience在public和private都有,只不过主体不同
C 虽然谈到了Behn的体裁使用问题,但要回答的这个问题与体裁不相关
E 传统tragedies里面没神马女性角色吧,起码不会根据公共/私人的情景来设置不同的女性角色特征。
