Analyzing a Character

This process not only informs and explains but also allows for a deeper understanding of human nature and ourselves. As Laurence Perrine noted, fiction serves as a crucial tool for knowing and understanding people, fostering compassion. Use your analytical skills to explore the character's traits, motivations, and development throughout the narrative. Your insights will contribute to a richer understanding of the text.
