Transcription de la présentation

  1. Character An imagined person who inhabits a story.

  2. Stock characters: • Stereotyped characters known for some outstanding trait or traits ( Prince Charming, the mad scientist or fearless detective). They require little detailed portraiture. “ In the finest literary creations, characters are drawn”…not as stereotypes , but as unique individuals”. They exhibit many facets to their personalities and have more than one dimension.

  3. Types of Characters: • Flat Characters- known for only one outstanding trait. They are rarely the central characters in a narrative and stay the same throughout the story. • Round Characters - are represented in depth in a narrative. Round characters are those who change significantly during the course of a narrative or whose full personalities are revealed gradually throughout the story.

  4. Dynamic and Static characters: • Dynamic characters – These characters change or evolve through the course of the story. • Static characters – remain fixed and do not experience significant change.

  5. Hero: a character who exhibits ideal qualities valued by the world he/she inhabits.

  6. Antihero: • A protagonist conspicuously lacking in one or more of the usual attributes of the traditional hero. They can be loners rather than leaders in their society . They are human rather than ideal.

  7. Motivation: • Sufficient reason for characters to behave as they do

  8. How a Character is revealed • Speech- This includes dialect, tone, volume, style frequency of communication. • Actions- What a character does and does not do • A character’s surroundings and the atmosphere with which they are associated. • Physical Appearance
