B. Progressive

This statement is representative of progressive thinking because it serves to not even consider the feasibility and validity of the classics as literature.  If it had considered that the classics could possibly be seen as potentially acceptable by modern readers, then it could be seen to be making a compromise.  A traditional statement would have spoken against modern literature and supported only the classics.
