Correct Answer :

Option B

Greenbalt is considered the founding father of New Historicism.

Greenbalt is considered the founding father of New Historicism.

Solution :

To arrange the jumbled parts into a meaningful sentence, let us analyze the role of each fragment:

- Greenbalt: This is a proper noun acting as the subject of the sentence.
- is considered: This is the verb phrase in the passive voice ("is" + past participle "considered"), which connects the subject to its description.
- the founding father: This is the noun phrase acting as the subject complement, identifying who Greenbalt is considered to be.
- of New Historicism: This prepositional phrase modifies "the founding father", specifying what he is the founding father of.

Combining these parts in a logical subject-verb-complement order gives us:
"Greenbalt" (Subject) + "is considered" (Verb) + "the founding father of New Historicism" (Complement).

Therefore, the correct order forms the sentence: "Greenbalt is considered the founding father of New Historicism."
