Answer:
C. self-reliance
Explanation:
The book Little Women by Louisa May Alcott tells the story of four young women who were beset by dire poverty in their family. The girls were named Beth, Jo, Amy, and Meg. They all struggled to do something for their families in order to help themselves. Meg, for example, taught four children from a family in the area where they lived.
Their values reflected a Transcendentalist lifestyle which is focused on individuality- the authority a person commands by virtue of who he is. This lifestyle is also shown in the fact that they were not materialistic, depending on men to thrive. For example, Jo rejected Laurie even though he had good prospects.
