Respuesta :

answer is
C; the use of multiple perspectives in a single book

Answer: In the context of literature, the term 'parallax' means C. the use of multiple perspectives in a single book.

Explanation: The word 'parallax' makes reference to the effect that different perspectives or positions provoke in an object. In other words, 'parallax' is related to the displacement of the apparent position of an object when it is viewed from differing perspectives. Therefore, this term is applied to literature when referring to the use of multiple points of view or perspectives that are found in the same story. An example of 'parallax' in literature is Ulyssed by James Joyce. This book presents three main perspectives: Stephen's, Leopold's and Molly's.
