One New York publisher has estimated that 50,000 to 60,000 people in the United States want an anthology that includes the complete works of William Shakespeare.And what accounts for this renewed interest in Shakespeare? As scholars point out, the psychological insights he portrays in both male and female characters are amazing even today.
This paragraph best supports the statement that
A.Shakespeare’s characters are more interesting than fictional characters today.
There is no comparison between Shakespeare and non-Shakespeare characters in the passage.
B.People today are interested in Shakespeare’s work because of the characters.
Correct. The passage assumed that audience praise S's works for the characters portrayed in his plays.
C.Academic scholars are putting together an anthology of Shakespeare’s work.
There is a demand for an anthology, but no sign of it actually being published.
D.New Yorkers have a renewed interested in the work of Shakespeare.
NY publishers do not specifically only target NYers.
E.Shakespeare was a psychiatrist as well as a playwright.
He was not, he only portrayed his characters psychology fictionally.
