The character peyton farquhar in ambrose bierce's "an occurrence at owl creek bridge" possesses characteristics most closely related to which literary movements? (choose two). modernism romanticism realism naturalism postmodernism

Naturalism and Romanticism

Explanation:

Romanticism was a movement that made emphasis on intense emotion as a source of creation and value.

The character of Peyton Farquhar is elevated by the emotionality he generates (romanticism), to be considered a gentleman.

Naturalism is the worldview based on detachment, and determinism is usually associated as the opposite of romanticism.

Despite his characterization and beliefs, our protagonist, Peyton presents us with a naturalist interaction with the world around him in the text, with a strong, determinist, direct reaction to problems.  

It is interesting that this character relates to these two contrasting  movements, depending on his convenience and the situations he is in.
