A. to draw attention to the story's plot and theme
In "The Lottery," Shirley Jackson uses stock characters to focus more on the events that unfold in the story rather than on the individual characters themselves. By using characters that conform to traditional stereotypes, Jackson is able to emphasize the collective nature of the town's participation in the lottery ritual and shine a light on the theme of conformity and the dangers of blindly following tradition.
