What elements make up a play's historical context? (Select all correct answers.)
A)the ages of the play's main characters
B)society's expectations of men and women
C)the artistic and literary movements of the time
D)world events just before the play was written
All of these things can help a reader figure out when the play occurs if the play doesn't tell them. A isn't correct because if you don't know when the play is set, it doesn't matter how old they are.
