Answer: D) historical

  1. A) romantic
  2. B) anti-romantic
  3. C) comedy
  4. D) historical

Explanation

Historical. Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" (about 1599) dramatises real Roman events: the plot against Caesar, his murder in 44 BC and the civil war after it. It is also a tragedy, but among these options "historical" fits; it is not a comedy or a romance.
