  4. Gustav Freytag • Gustav Freytag (13 July 1816 – 30 April 1895) was a German dramatist and novelist.

  5. Freytag’s Analysis • Freytag analyzed Ancient Greek and Shakespearean 5 act plays. • He organized all plays using Freytag’s pyramid. • Although it was applied to 5 act plays, his theory is still applied to stories and plays today. • According to Freytag, a drama is divided into five parts or acts. • Exposition • Rising Action • Climax • Falling Action • Resolution (denouement- French for “to untie or Latin for “knot”)

  6. exposition • Provides the background information needed to understand the story. • It ends with the inciting moment. • Inciting moment: The incident without which there would be no story. • It sets the remainder of the story in motion.

  7. Rising Action • The basic conflict is complicated by the introduction of related conflicts. • This includes obstacles that frustrate the protagonist’s attempt to reach their goal. • Secondary stories include secondary antagonists. • Protagonist: Main character undergoes change. • Antagonist: Character who keeps protagonist from reaching goal. Does not change.

  8. Climax • Also known as turning point. • It marks a change (for better or worse) for the protagonist. • Comedy vs Tragedy.

  9. Falling Action • Moment of reversal. • The conflict unravels. • The protagonist will win or lose. • Could contain a moment of final suspense.

  10. Resolution (Denouement) • This is the conclusion or story wrap-up. • Comedy- protagonist is happier than before (Happy Ending) • Tragedy- catastrophe or protagonist is worse off than at the beginning.
