Well, first of all it can't be B because women never were in the plays. If there was a part for a queen, a man could only take that part. It can't be A because that explains Greek tragedies. And it can't be D because those are comedies. So the only option that would be correct is C. If you are in K12 in 6th grade then it would be in the human odyssey page 320.
