_____________refers to time and place of a drama?
Detalles de la respuesta
The term that refers to the time and place of a drama is "setting." The setting is the physical and social environment in which a story or drama takes place. It includes the time period, the location, the climate, and the social context of the story. The setting can be a specific place, such as a city, a building, or a room, or it can be a more general location, such as a forest, a beach, or a desert. In drama, the setting is important because it helps to establish the context of the story and provides the audience with a visual and emotional backdrop for the action. The setting can also influence the characters' behavior and motivations, as well as the themes and messages of the drama. Therefore, if someone is referring to the time and place of a drama, they are talking about the setting. It is important to note that the setting is not the same as a scene or an act, which refer to specific parts of the drama rather than the overall environment in which the story takes place.

Detalles de la respuesta
The narrator of a poem is typically called the "speaker." In poetry, the speaker is the voice behind the words of the poem. It is the persona created by the poet to convey their thoughts, feelings, and experiences through the poem.

It is important to note that the speaker is not the same as the author, who is the person who wrote the poem.

Therefore, if someone is asking about the narrator of a poem, they are likely referring to the speaker, who is the voice behind the words of the poem.
