Which detail gives implicit information about the modern view of the elizabethan landscape? in a society in which people still starve to death, an orchard is not a beautiful thing in itself: its beauty lies in the fact that it produces apples and cider. a wide flat field is “finer” than rugged terrain for it can be tilled easily to produce wheat and so represents good white bread. ranges of hills and mountains are obstacles to elizabethan travelers and very far from picturesque features you go out of your way to see. hills might feature in an elizabethan writer’s description of a county because of their potential for sheep grazing, but on the whole he will be more concerned with listing all the houses of the gentry, their seats and parks.

The detail gives implicit information about the modern view of the Elizabethan landscape is "Ranges of hills and mountains are obstacles to Elizabethan travelers and very far from picturesque features you go out of your way to see."

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the paragraph of reference, here is the missing information:

Read the excerpt from The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England.

The underlying reasons for such differences are not hard to find. In a society in which people still starve to death, an orchard is not a beautiful thing in itself: its beauty lies in the fact that it produces apples and cider. A wide flat field is "finer" than rugged terrain for it can be tilled easily to produce wheat and so represents good white bread. A small thatched cottage, which a modern viewer might consider pretty, will be considered unattractive by an Elizabethan traveler, for cottagers are generally poor and able to offer little in the way of hospitality. Ranges of hills and mountains are obstacles to Elizabethan travelers and very far from picturesque features you go out of your way to see. Hills might feature in an Elizabethan writer's description of a county because of their potential for sheep grazing, but on the whole he will be more concerned with listing all the houses of the gentry, their seats and parks.

The paragraph gives a different description of beauty and importance from the one that people would refer to, this is the effect of the Elizabethan times, things that were functional or productive were considered beautiful because of the lack of goods for the people, then the second option is the one that best describes the view of the Elizabethan landscape.

C.) "Ranges of hills and mountains are obstacles to Elizabethan travelers and very far from picturesque features you go out of your way to see."
