Answer:
"A colonial mansion, a hereditary estate, I would say a haunted house, and reach the height of romantic felicity- but that would be asking too much of fate!"
Explanation:
The book tells, in first person, the story of a person forced to confinement by her husband and doctor, who tries to cure her of a nervous depression. Forbidden to make any physical and mental effort, the character mocks the romantic idea that a haunted house brought romantic and rapturous happiness, as in many books. What happens is that she becomes obsessed with the wallpaper of her bedroom, and at last goes crazy.
Long read as a simple tale of gothic horror, The yellow wallpaper was rediscovered in the 1970s by a new generation of feminist theorists and has been studied in more depth ever since. The plot of the work was inspired by experiences of the author herself, who in the 1880s underwent a treatment similar to that of her character - prescribed by the famous "doctor of nerves" S. Weir Mitchell.
Answer and explanation:
In the novel "Dracula" by Bram Stoker, the great fear the British had of what was exotic and foreign is explored. During the Victorian era, England saw itself as a nation with a colonizing mission. Having other nations under its control and being in touch with so many different cultures, it comes as no surprise that England saw diversity as a threat. A country with several languages, customs, and beliefs is much more difficult to subjugate and keep under control than a uniform one. England was, thus, afraid of reverse colonization, of the West being influenced by the Eastern countries they once invaded. The novel tries to define the West in a positive and civilized light, describing Dracula's country as, different, inferior, even barbaric:
In the population of Transylvania there are four distinct nationalities: Saxons in the South, and mixed with them the Wallachs, who are the descendants of the Dacians; Magyars in the West, and Szekelys in the East and North. I am going among the latter, who claim to be descended from Attila and the Huns. (Stoker 2)
“Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways, and there shall be to you many strange things.” (Stoker 23)
C. explanations about how the actors sound and behave This is the correct version.

B. the meaning behind events and characters’ actions. ( Stage directions do not analyse what happens in the play).
D. writing that is vague and uncertain. ( On the contrary, the stage directions have to be clear and certain to guarantee the comprehension of the play).
