Which term is not matched with a correct definition?
democracy – rule by the people
dictatorship – rule by one person
oligarchy – rule by fear and ideology
republic – rule by elected officials

The correct answer here is the third option which would be C. Rule by fear and ideology is not oligarchy instead, oligarchy is a rule by a small number of people who hold the most power in the country. The power may rest in the hands of nobles, military, rich families, corporate owners or even religious leaders. The term was coined by Aristotle and it was used to denote the rule of the rich which is synonymous with plutocracy.  

answer

answer: a: they can affect the author’s perspective and in turn the theme and purpose for the writing.

the author's background and time period greatly affect the text that the author produces. this is because we are all a reflection of our time period and background. depending on where and when we were born, we will find some questions more important than others. for example, if we are a wealthy person born in medieval times, we will most likely be interested in courtly love and stories of knights and honour. however, if we are born in the 20th century in africa, we might instead focus on colonialism and its effects on the newly liberated countries. the theme and the purpose of writing are both affected by these conditions.
