Which best defines a literary stereotype and its purpose in literary? a- a literary stereotype is a term used interchangeably with prejudice. b- a literary stereotypes creates conflict and contrast how a character may seem with who a character really is. c- a literary stereotypes has no purpose in literary in literary expect to reveal prejudice and express the views of an antagonist. d- a literary stereotype is a way for the writer to indicate whether a character is good or evil, a protagonist or an antagonist.

Although stereotypes can be linked to prejudice as described in A & C, I don't think this is what the question is after because it specifies "literary stereotype." In literature, stereotypes can be used to create tension. They provide a character with an expected behavior, the stereotype, and if the character doesn't follow that behavior it is interesting because it is unexpected.

So I like answer B the best because it creates conflict with character expectations.

By the way, with answer D, good, evil, protagonist or antagonists are archetypes, not stereotypes.

The correct answer is c. maybe

Ibelieve that the answer is d.
