Parts of a Story

Parts of a Story Every story has specific parts that the reader will encounter. These “Parts of a story” are vital to any story, and they include: Plot – what are the events in the story? Setting – where does the story take place? Characters – who is in the story? Conflict – what is the main problem? Theme – what is the main message/lesson of the story? Point of View – from what perspective is the story being told?

Point of View: The eyes of the story

Point of View Point of view is defined as the angle from which the story is told Types of Point of View include: First Person Objective Omniscient Omniscient Limited Omniscient

Point of View Types of Point of View in a story: First Person - The story is told  by the protagonist or one of the characters who interacts closely with the protagonist or other characters (using pronouns I, me, we, etc).  The reader sees the story through this person's eyes as he/she experiences it and only knows what he/she knows or feels. Objective Omniscient – The author tells the story in the third person.  It appears as though a camera is following the characters, going anywhere, and recording only what is seen and heard.  There is no comment on the characters or their thoughts. No interpretations are offered.  The reader is placed in the position of spectator without the author there to explain.  The reader has to interpret events on his own.

Omniscient Point of View Types of Point of View in a story: Omniscient- The author can narrate the story using the omniscient point of view.  He can move from character to character, event to event, having free access to the thoughts, feelings and motivations of his characters and he introduces information where and when he chooses.  There are two main types of omniscient point of view: Limited Omniscient - The author tells the story in third person (using pronouns they, she, he, it, etc).  We know only what the character knows and what the author allows him/her to tell us. We can see the thoughts and feelings of characters if the author chooses to reveal them to us.
