In Czech language and literature, which three philosophical novels comprise Karel Čapek's celebrated Noetic Trilogy investigating the multi-faceted nature of truth?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Hordubal, Povětroň, and Obyčejný život
- Step 1: Written between 1933 and 1934, Čapek's Noetic Trilogy explores epistemology: the impossibility of absolute objective judgment and the multitude of internal personalities inside every human. Answer: Hordubal, Povětroň, and Obyčejný život. Why not the others: R.U.R., Věc Makropulos, and Ze života hmyzu, Krakatit, Továrna na Absolutno, and První parta and Matka, Bílá nemoc, and Loupežník do not fit this literary work or grammatical concept.
