Discussion
Select the option that best evaluates the following statements.
1. Doctor Faustus represents a conservative response to a rapidly expanding world which offered new treasures, pleasures and forms of knowledge.
2. It is said that Marlowe used the finest poetry in Doctor Faustus keeping one eye on the convention and another on the thrill of the new.
Answer: B
The key is that both statements are correct and the first explains the second. The question asks for the best evaluation of the two statements; the key accepts both and reads statement 1, that Doctor Faustus is a conservative reaction to a world expanding in knowledge and pleasures, as the reason for statement 2, that Marlowe wrote the finest poetry with one eye on convention and one on the new. This is a critical judgment and it was not independently confirmed here; the key is kept as printed. The options saying only 1 or only 2, or that both are incorrect, are the ones the key rejects.
