 Chapter 1 Notes:

Chapter 1 Plot and Setting

Plot:  Plot is the most important part of any story.  It is the series of related events that happen in the story. 

Exposition:  The basic situation of the story.  It is the beginning of the story where the reader learns the character, conflict and setting.

Complications (Rising Action):  The events or problems that help develop the plot and build a reader’s interest.

Climax:  The most exciting part of the story.  It’s the turning point of the story usually toward the end.

Resolution:  The end of the story where the conflict is resolved.

Conflict:  The struggle between two forces.  It’s the problem that has to be solved in the story. 

      External:  Man v. man.  Man v. Nature.  Man v. Society, Man vs Tech

      Internal:  Within the main character’s mind or heart.

Setting:  The setting of a story affects the plot and the characters.  Setting includes the character’s customs- how they live, how they dress, eat and behave.  LOCAL COLOR

Setting will also reveal a time frame.

The most important function of setting is to contribute to the story’s emotional effect- its mood or atmosphere.  It helps set the tone.

How does an author create a specific tone?  With very specific words.  In other words, if an author wants the tone to be scary, he will use words (DICTION) that have SCARY Connotations.
