"villa accepts a medal." insurgent mexico. new york: d. appleton and company, 1914. google books. web. 16 may 2011. what is the point of view of the excerpt?

C). Third-person objective.

Explanation:

The authors employ a number of modes or frameworks(lenses) to relate a narrative and events occurred in it which primarily intends to provide the readers with a perspective to look at the text. The third-person objective is exemplified as the mode of narration in which the narrator offers an objective or unbiased view of the story to the readers without revealing their thoughts or intentions as it occurs in 'third-person omniscient'.

In the given excerpt, the 'third-person objective' point of view has been employed which is clarified by the author's narration that is quite objective and commentary-like(due to lack of emotions or opinions) in approach. The narrator is merely describing the events as an impersonal and unbiased narrator without disclosing the thoughts or emotions of the characters. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
