As the middle class began to read, which form of literature became more popular? periodicals novels classic works from ancient rome plays

Romance and politics were the favorite subjects of the middle class at that time, so when the revolutionary printing press was popularized, around the 15th century, allowing people in Europe to share massive amounts of information quickly, it transformed the way society evolved as the middle class began to read, with "Novels" and "periodicals" being the preferred ones by the masses due books were expensive and mostly aristocrats had access to them. But "Novels" were the most popular, seizing the development of extended prose fiction, spreading the favorite subjects.

Novels is the correct option .

In the 18th century, in England, novels became popular. Novels began to be published in periodicals in parts. They came out every week. The novels were about real life experience and they reflected the lifestyle of the middle class. The topics were related to power and reason.

-periodicals ( These were important. They published news about politics, fashion, social etiquette and any other current affair but novels became to be more popular.)

- classic works from Ancient Rome ( These were not very popular. The novels dealt with different issues from  the ones present in classic works).

-plays ( There were some plays used for criticism. Samuel Johnson was a representative of this literary work).
