John Cleland, best known for his novel Fanny Hill, is becoming the Vivaldi of eighteenth-century literature in that his cult is promoted by people who do not much care for the period as a whole and who cheerfully ignore the work of its greatest masters.
It can be inferred that the author of the passage above believes which of the following?
(A) Cleland was more esteemed as a writer in his own time than he is in ours.
Cleland is not compared as a writer with writers of our time.Cleland is compared to Vivaldi who may be or may not belong to our time.
(B) Few people know much about the period in which Cleland wrote.
This can be a contender if we dont find any other option better than this,Because the Cleland cult is promoted by people who dont care about the period and how many people if any know much about that period is not supported.
(C) Most eighteenth-century novels deserve more attention than Fanny Hill.
Too vague point to be the inference because we are not discussing the attention that other novels got.And even if it remotly relate to the main point then it is not supported that the others deserve more attention.
(D) The cult of Vivaldi has developed more recently than that of Cleland.
No time refence for the cult of Vivalid is provided in the argument so it can be before or after the time of Cleland.
(E) Vivaldi was not one of the greatest masters of his time.
Correct inference because it is mentioned in the argument that the people who promoted the cult of John Cleland cheerfully ignore the work of the greatest masters of that time and if such is the case that means that Vivalidi is also not the greatest master of his time or else he would have been ignored too.

Initially hesitated between C. And E.
This is what I think
C. From author’s argument, it might be the case that there are other authors who were “the greatest masters” of the time. But that doesn’t necessary mean that their works “deserve more attention” than Fanny Hills. To be a greatest master does not always require that the work receives more attention.
E. Looking back to the question, it said clearly “what the author believes”. In mentioning that Cleland is like Vivaldi, the author must believe that Vivaldi is not the greatest of his time but did receive a lot of attention.
