Symbolism Using an object or concept to represent a larger idea A symbol’s meaning may shift depending on the context Function in the text: makes texts more interesting to read, leaves clues to be figured out by the reader, repetition of symbols is called a motif

Characterization When the author makes a point to tell the reader about a character The analysis of a character over time Function in the text: exposition, point of view, gives the reader a first impression – something to build upon as he/she reads

Setting Time and place Includes atmosphere (how something feels because of the setting) Function in the text: exaggerates choices made by characters, sets the mood, lets the reader know when the story is happening (context clues)
