Use the Internet to find the definitions of the following literary terms. You could complete them electronically (on this page), or write them out (for your notebooks/binders). 1. Plot i) Exposition: the introduction of the short story, when characters and setting are introduced (Ms. McPherson). ii) Conflict: struggle between opposing forces.person vs. person , person vs. nature, person vs. technology, person vs self iii) Rising Action: a related series of incidents in a literary plot that build toward the point of greatest interest. Tension builds through conflict. iv) Foreshadowing: The presentation of details, characters, or incidents in a narrative in such a way that later events are prepared for (hints of what is to come) v) Climax: the highest or most (intense point) in the development or resolution of something; culmination . Conflict is at a peak. vi) Falling Action/Resolution: the events after the climax when conflicts are resolved 2. Characterization i) Protagonist: the leading character, HYPERLINK "http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/hero"  hero, or heroine of a drama or other literary work. ii) Antagonist: A person that opposes or contends against another. iii) Motivations: the things that compel a character to do things (love, anger, etc.) iv) Epiphany: sudden realization of how things work; deeper meaning of life 3. Setting: where and when where the story takes place 4. Point of View i) First person narration: WHEN A STORY IS BEING TOLD BY THE PERSON..OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT and uses the personal pronoun I ii) Third person narration: the story is told from an outsider, someone not involved in the story 5. Theme: main idea or message about life that the story wants to convey; lesson eg. The Chrysalids taught us that we should accept peoples differences. Also, the title refers to chrysalis (the stage larvae pass through before becoming butterflies); therefore, an important theme is that we must ACCEPT CHANGE...that change is necessary to grow as humans. If we resist it, we will become obsolete. 6. Style: i) Tone: the feeling or emotion evoked in a story ii) Irony: Words that mean the opposite of what you really think Ex) Alanis Morissettes Song iii) Simile: a comparison using like or as eg. Nicoles hair is as black as a ravens wing. Ryan is as smart as Einstein. iv) Imagery: the use of vivid/figurative language ; descriptive words that appeal to any of the 5 senses v) Metaphor: A figure of speech where a word or phrase is applied to an object or action in a way that is not literal ; a comparison without using like or as. Karlee is the sun. Shelana is the moon. vi) Personification: the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form; Translation: something inanimate that has human characteristics. For example, the wind howled. viii) Paradox a statement that apparently contradicts itself but yet might be true. For example, War is Peace. 7. Symbolism: when something concrete represents an abstract idea; for example, the fly (for fishing) symbolized relationship between Casey and her father (Offerings); butterfly symbolizes love between sisters, boomerang symbolizes returning to each other. 567ln ! ) * . 9  $ 2 _ a f m  > @ A U V Ǽ୔xxxxxxbb+hqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 7hqdzhqdz6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH hqdzhqdzCJaJmH sH hqdzhqdzmH sH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJ$OJQJ^JaJ$mH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH  hqdzh &67mn ! *  ` a ? @ A V W 5 6 gdqdzgdqdzV W ~  4 6 )*  drتlPl7hqdzhqdz6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH hqdzCJaJmH sH 4hqdzhqdz>*B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH %jhqdzhqdzCJUaJmH sH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH hqdzhqdzCJaJmH sH  *  EFOP+,gdqdzgdqdzDFLSNPT]"35ؼؼؼؼؼئؼfBhqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJfHmH phq sH :hqdzhqdzB*OJQJ^JfHmH phq sH +h}V4B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 7hqdzhqdz6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH hqdzhqdzCJaJmH sH *,29f~῰{eO6+hqdzh mH sH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +hqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH +h}V4B*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH 7hqdzhqdz6B*CJOJQJ]^JaJmH phsH 1hqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJmH phsH hqdzhqdzCJaJmH sH BhqdzhqdzB*CJOJQJ^JaJfHmH phq sH <h}V4B*CJOJQJ^JaJfHmH phq sH gdqdz21:pqdz/ =!"#$% ^ 2 0@P`p2( 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p 0@P`p8XV~_HmH nH sH tH 8`8 Normal_HmH sH tH DA D Default Paragraph FontViV  Table Normal :V 44 la (k (No List HC@H Body Text Indent `CJ@@  r List Paragraph ^<^@< qdz Normal (Web)CJaJPK![Content_Types].xmlN0EH-J@%ǎǢ|ș$زULTB l,3;rØJB+$G]7O٭V$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
