PrepTest 118 - Section 1 - Question 16

Show summary

Literary critic: Often Support the heirs of a successful writer decide to publish the manuscripts and the letters the dead writer left behind, regardless of the merit of the work. ████████ ████ ███████ ████ ███████████ ████ ████ █████ ██ ██ ████████ ██ ███████████ ███ ████ █████ ████ █████ ███ ████ ██ ██ ████████ ██████████ ████ █████ ████ ████ █████ █ ██████████ ██████ ███ ███████ ███ ██ ███████ █ ████████ █████████ ██████████ ██████ ███████ ██ ████████████

Summarize Argument

Successful writers should immediately destroy any recently completed manuscripts they decide not to publish. When these writers pass away, their heirs often publish works that the writers chose not to release during their lifetime. Many writers would prefer that unpublished manuscripts remain unpublished posthumously.

Notable Assumptions

The critic assumes that writers are confident in their preliminary evaluations of recently completed manuscripts—confident enough to destroy them immediately if they decide not to publish.
