Question

which approach did william hogarth employ in breakfast scene to criticize a marriage that was arranged for money and status?
a. automatism
b. satire
c. yellow journalism
d. propaganda

Explanation:

William Hogarth's "Breakfast Scene" (from "Marriage A-la-Mode") uses satire to criticize arranged marriages for money and status. Satire employs humor/irony to expose vices, which matches Hogarth's critique of societal flaws here. Automatism is about spontaneous art, yellow journalism is sensationalist news, and propaganda is persuasive advocacy—none fit as satire does.

Answer:

b. Satire
