Explanation:

James Joyce's "A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man" revolves around the story of Stephen Dedalus, a young boy in conflict with his religious upbringing. The novel deals with themes of identity, religion, myth, experience, innocence, freedom, etc.

While studying at Clongowes Wood College, a religious boarding school, Stephen Dedalus had broken his glasses by accident. This rendered him unable to write during Latin class. But despite his valid reason, Father Dolan, the prefect of studies, refused to see it that way and punished him. After the class, Stephen went to see the rector, Father Conmee about the incident where he told the rector about his excuse and how he was wronged. It was then that Father Conmee promised to talk to Father Dolan, promising Stephen that "it is a mistake and I shall speak to Father Dolan myself."

Thus, the correct answer is option d.
