The three plays in Preston Jones’s “A Texas Trilogy” are completely independent, and each has only a peripheral relationship with the other.

(A) independent, and each has only a peripheral relationship with the other
(B) independent, and each has only a peripheral relationship one with another
(C) independent, and they have only a peripheral relationship with the others
(D) independent and have only a peripheral relationship with one another
(E) independent and have only a peripheral relationship each with the other

OA after some discussions.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

IMO : D

"One another" is perfect.

Hii sam,

I choose D only on my instinct. I really had no formal explanation for it. I think the only acceptable construction is - "with one another" and "with each other".

Just type "each with the other" in google and see the number of hits - none.

But sorry I don't have any grammatical explanation for this !! may be its a accepted idioms.

Anyway what is the source ? I think this sentence test only idioms, as none of the sentences have "with each other" in the option.

A - each has only a peripheral relationship with the other. It implies EACH (of the three plays) have ...with the other (ie other plays). Can we say with certainity what does OTEHR PLAYS MEANS HERE. It could be other plays from THREE PLAYS or OTHER PLAYS not mentioned in the sentence.

But sentence intends to convey that each of the three plays has relationshiop with others plays and these other plays must be part of the three plays). This relationship can be explained by ONE ANOTHER. Therefore IMO D better

Ron's explanation on the usage of each/other/another.
"the other" is used when there are only two things.
i chose one of the two dinner options; my date chose the other.

"another" is used for another of an indefinite number of things.
usually, i'll order one entree and my date will order another, so that we can each try some of both.

"each other" refers to interaction between exactly two things or people.
my date and i usually sit next to each other, rather than across from each other.

"one another" also refers to interaction, but there may be more than two things/people.
the holiday season offers many occasions for people who have not seen one another in many months to reunite.
