Correct Answer:
C. Modernism
Explanation:
The correct answer is Modernism. Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism, and Futurism are key avant-garde movements that defined the era of Modernism, which spanned the late 19th to the mid-20th century. This period was characterized by a radical break from traditional artistic and literary forms, favoring experimentation, the exploration of the subconscious, and a focus on the rapid changes of the modern industrial world. Unlike Post-Modernism, which emerged later and emphasized irony and pastiche, or theoretical frameworks like Structuralism, Modernism provided the cultural and philosophical foundation for these specific movements.
