Explanation:

Character analysis focuses on elements directly related to the characters themselves and their role in the text. The author's age when writing the text is irrelevant to the character's traits, actions, or impact. In contrast, appearance, actions, personal background (age, career, lifestyle), and effect on others are all core aspects of analyzing a literary character.
