Which approach best defines how writers of historical fiction try to appeal to readers?

Question

What strategies do writers of historical fiction employ to effectively engage their readers?

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

Ethos, pathos, and  logos. Ethos is appealing to the reader by the author establishing his credability. Pathos is appealing to the reader by the author "pulling at the readers heart strings." This means he is illiciting emotions in the reader. Logos is appealing to the reader by the author establishing logic in his argument. These stratagies are used by all authors, not just historical fiction writers.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:"Which approach best defines how writers of historical fiction try to appeal to readers?         A.by providing an accurate, fact-based picture of history         B.by altering historical facts to rewrite the past         C.by blending historical facts with imaginary characters and plots         D.by introducing characteristics of modern cultures into historical eras"C.by blending historical facts with imaginary characters and plots  Explanation: Historical fiction writers try to attract readers by mixing real historical facts and personalities related to those historical facts that really existed with fictional characters. So they manage to address a fact known to the public, highlight the importance of this personality that really existed, but from the point of view of fictitious characters, who may not have been important for the historical event, but show how the event affected the lives of normal people and how the decisions of the real characters interfered in society.An example of this can be seen in the book "And the wind took", where it portrays the events that occurred before, during and after the session war. Although the main characters are a southern family that didn't really exist, the book features real characters like Lincoln and the generals of the Confederate and Union armies.
