Question

which factors are to be considered when using historical criticism to analyze a text? choose three correct answers. the language structure applying themes to modern day common beliefs of the period political events of the time the original audience

Explanation:

Historical criticism focuses on the historical context of a text. "Common beliefs of the period" and "political events of the time" relate to the historical context. "The original audience" is also considered as it affects how the text was intended. "The language structure" is more about formalist criticism, and "applying themes to modern day" is not part of historical criticism (which looks at the text's own time, not modern application).

Answer:

• common beliefs of the period
• political events of the time
• the original audience
