"Literature should represent an 'experience', giving something to the reader and employing all the resources of language. The text should be balanced with the properly literary matching of form and content." (Barrell)

A)traditional
B)progressive

Respuesta :

I believe the answer is a.

Answer:

A)traditional

Explanation:

It is a traditional view because the speaker sets to focus on the form of the language, The form should represent experience but this will give something to the reader as long as it has used all the literary devices correctly, Therefore, a literary piece is made up of the correct and varied use of language items. This should  have a lot of vocabulary, complex sentences , imagery, metaphors ,personifications, etc. Literature is understood as the perfect and fluent use of language.
