Respuesta :

He did write all of the other options here.

The correct answer is C. A short-story entitled the Idler

Explanation:

Oliver Goldsmith was an Irish writer who lived during the 18th century, Goldsmith is mainly known for his novels and poems. Indeed, his most famous novel is "The Vicar of Wakefield" that tells the story of a vicar or parson's family. Additionally, "She Stoops to Conquer" became his most famous play, which is a comedy play and tells the story or Kate a young girl who is supposed to marry a rich man. And one of his most recognized poems is a philosophical poem called "The Traveler" that depicts society and the excesses of it. Thus, Goldsmith did not write a short story entitled "The Idler", as this was written by Samuel Johnson an English writer who also lived in the 18th century as part of a series of essays. Thus, from these literary works the only one that was not written by Goldsmith, but by Johnson, another European writer is "The Idler".
