Literary Genres Genre- category or type of literature.

Three large categories Poetry Lyric Concrete Dramatic Narrative Epic Fiction Prose (Novels and short stories) Nonfiction (Biography, autobiography, letters, essays, and reports) Drama Serious and Tragedy Comic Melodrama Farce Try to think of an example text for each genre

Point of View First-person  Look at the pronouns:  “I”  “My”  “We” Third -person  Look at the pronouns:  “He”  “She”  “They” What point of view is “The Most Dangerous Game” written in?

Point of View Third-Person Limited  Pronouns remain the same  The reader can only know the thoughts/feelings/ inner workings of ONE character Third –person Omnicient  Pronouns remain the same  The reader is able to “jump” from character to character and know the inner workings of multiple characters

Dual literary devices  READER  AUTHOR MoodTone

MOOD  How the READER FEELS while reading a story.  What are some mood words?  Energetic  Calm  Relaxed  Tense  Surprised

TONE  How the AUTHOR FEELS towards their audience and subject of a piece.  Tone words:  Approving  Proud  Hostile  Unconcerned  Disrespectful

Book Talk Preparation  Four note cards will be due for your book talk. We will work on the cards every Friday:  Characters  Plot/Setting/Conflict  Theme/Mood/Tone  Author(s)  Remember, these cards are crucial to helping you out during the book talk.  Each note card must have 10 facts from your book.  Each fact must have an accompanying quote. I expect parenthetical citations after each quote. Example: (Rowling 95).  Index cards WITHOUT quotes on the back only receive HALF credit
