Identifying Literary Elements, Literary Techniques and Literary
Devices in Various Modes of Fiction

Background Information for Learners


Fiction generally is a narrative form, in any medium, consisting of people, events,
or places that are imaginary—in other words, not based strictly on history or fact. In its
most narrow usage, fiction refers to written narratives in prose and often
specifically novels, though also novellas and short stories.
A work of fiction implies the inventive construction of an imaginary world and, most
commonly, its fictionality is publicly acknowledged, so its audience typically expects it to
deviate in some ways from the real world rather than presenting only characters who are
actual people or descriptions that are factually true. In any type of genre, these literary
devices, literary elements and literary techniques are always present. Understanding
these aspects of literature could enhance experience with the text.
How to convey a story?
Scene is the action on the page. In movie terms, it would be what you see onscreen, and
what you hear in dialogue. It’s the show part of show, don’t tell.

Summary is a narrative recounting of action in order to transition to another scene, or to


cover a long period that would be too cumbersome to show. Thus, it’s the tell part of show,
don’t tell. (There are other “tells” in fiction, but that’s another topic).

Exposition is story information delivered to the reader. Such information is usually about
a setting (description, history, social life) or a character (description, skills, education).

Backstory is history relating to the characters or plot, something that


happened before the novel begins. A flashback is all backstory, but sometimes backstory
bits are dropped in as part of the narrative.

ELEMENTS OF FICTION
CHARACTER
TYPES OF CHARACTER:
Protagonist- main character who generates the action of the story and engages the
reader’s interest and empathy. It is often the hero or heroine.
Antagonist- a character who opposes the protagonist. Both the protagonist and
antagonist move the plot along, create the fiction and draw the reader’s interest.
Dynamic character- is one who goes through some sort of change; a protagonist is a
usually a dynamic character.
Static characters- are those who do not change throughout the course of the story.
Round characters- are fully developed figure in the story. They are complex and show
a true depth of personality.

PLOT
It is the arrangement of events and actions in a short story to convey a theme.

Types of Plot

Flash back- starts from the current situation and goes back to a certain time in the past
In Medias res- a repetition of many flash backs.
Linear- the events in the story are arranged chronologically.
Exposition is the introduction and explanation of the setting and who the actors are.
Rising Action is the unfolding of interrelated events in a story.
A conflict may variously be a physical, moral, psychological, intellectual, or spiritual
contest between antagonistic forces.

Types of Conflict
External Conflicts
Man vs. man- a battle between two individuals
Man vs. society- a battle between a person and a group of people
Man vs. environment- a battle between a person and natural calamities
Man vs. God- a battle between a person and supernatural being
Internal Conflict
Man vs. himself- a battle between a person and his thoughts, feelings, and
personal decisions
Climax is where the problem or conflict is at its peak of interest.
Falling Action is the result of the events that happened in the climax.
Resolution shows how a conflict or a problem is solved leading to its downward
movement or end.
THEME
Theme is the underlying central message that a writer would like to get
across. Enriquez (2008) explained that it is the main idea of a literary work, a philosophy
or observation of life or principle of truth which the author wishes to convey to the readers.

Practice Personal Hygiene protocols at all times. 2


Answering these questions that will lead to you to the theme of the story.
1. What is the story about?
2. What is meaning behind the story?
3. What did I learn from the story?
POINT OF VIEW
The eyes through which a fiction is told, the voice through which readers follow
the plot, meet its characters and discover setting is called point of view. Point of view
simply answers this questions: Who is telling the story?
The following are the four primary type points of view according to Bulger (2017):
1. First person point of view
The narrator is a character in the story thereby relating his or her experiences
directly. Hence, this POV commonly uses the first person pronouns I/we, me/we,
my/our, mine/ours and myself/ourselves in the process of narration which is
indicative that the narrator is a part of the story.
2. Second person point of view.
In fiction, this point of view is not very common. It uses the second-person
pronouns you, your, yours, yourself, yourselves.
3. Third person point of view
This POV uses third-person pronouns including he, him, his, himself, she, her,
hers, herself, it, its, itself, they, them, their, theirs, and themselves. This indicates
that the narrator is not a character in the story.

a. Third person point of view, limited. This is the most common point of view in
commercial fiction. The narrator is outside of the story and relating the
experiences of a character.
b. Third person point of view, omniscient. The narrator is not a part of the story
but has full access to the thoughts and experiences of all characters in the
story.
VARIOUS TECHNIQUES IN VARIOUS MODES OF FICTION

Telling your own fictional stories and engaging with the fictional stories of others are
important and pervasive parts of human culture. Yet, people do not only tell and engage
with fictional stories. They also reflect on the content of stories and on the way these are
told, (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, 2019).

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines the word mode as a way of doing


something. In the context of fiction, mode refers to the way a story is told. Technique,
on the other hand, refers to a skillful or efficient way of doing or achieving something. In
the context of fiction, the term refers to the skillful and efficient way of telling a story.
Hence, the following are the various techniques that are used in various modes of fiction:

Practice Personal Hygiene protocols at all times. 3


1. Narration

This is the most basic storytelling mode. It involves relating a series of events.

Techniques in Narration:

A. Order of Events

Commonly, narration sequences events in a fictional story


chronologically. This means that the order to which the events are told is
from beginning to end.

B. Transitional Words and Phrases for Expressing Time

Transitional devices allow the smooth flow of information when telling a


story. It acts like a bridge that connects sentences and paragraphs. The use
of appropriate transitional words and phrases aid readers in comprehending
stories.

2. Description

It gives vivid details about a place, person or thing while serving as a


mechanism for immersing readers in the fictional worlds the characters
inhabit. This mode tells what things are like according to the five senses.

Techniques in Description:

A. Use of Sensory Details


a. Physical Appearance
b. Smell
c. Taste
d. Feel
e. Sound
B. Use of Similes and Metaphors
a. Simile
This refers to the expressed comparison of things essentially unlike but
have a similarity using any of the following words and phrases: like, as, than,
similar to, resembles or seems (Enriquez, 2006).
b. Metaphor
This refers to the implied comparison between two fundamentally different
things but have a similarity.
3. Exposition
Exposition is the kind of mode that is used to inform.

Practice Personal Hygiene protocols at all times. 4


Techniques in Exposition:
A. Prologue and Epilogue
Prologues and epilogues are two tools writers can use to create exposition,
providing readers with information that allows them to better understand the
story or themes of a work of literature.
B. Flashbacks and Memories
A flashback is a transition in a story to an earlier time that interrupts the normal
chronological order of events.
C. Characters' Thoughts, Dialogue and Monologue
Writers can also use characters' thoughts as an effective expository tool.

The Gentlemen of the Jungle – by Jomo Kenyatta (1891-1978)
In the late nineteenth century the chief European powers divided Africa
among themselves. They could do this because European arms were superior
and because the African chiefs did not understand the meaning of the treaties
they were asked to sign. As a result Africans lost the lands they had traditionally
lived on and cultivated. Their attitude toward European “expansion” is made
clear in the following fable, which reflects the attitude of the Kikuyu people of
Kenya toward European laws and commissions.
Once upon a time an elephant made a friendship with a man. One day a
heavy thunderstorm broke out, the elephant went to his friend, who had a little
hut at the edge of the forest, and said to him: “My dear good man, will you please
let me put my trunk inside your hut to keep it out of this torrential rain?”
The man, seeing what situation his friend was in, replied: “My dear good
elephant, my hut is very small, but there is room for your trunk and myself.
Please put your trunk in gently.”
The elephant thanked his friend, saying: “You have done me a good deed
and one day I shall return your kindness.”
But what followed? As soon as the elephant put his trunk inside the hut,
slowly he pushed his head inside, and finally flung the man out in the rain, and
then lay down comfortably inside his friend’s hut, saying: “My dear good friend,
your skin is harder than mine, and as there is not enough room for both of us,
you can afford to remain in the rain while I am protecting my delicate skin from
the hailstorm.”
The man, seeing what his friend had done to him, started to grumble, the
animals in the nearby forest heard the noise and came to see what was the
matter. All stood around listening to the heated argument between the man and
his friend the elephant. In this turmoil the lion came along roaring, and said in a
loud voice: “Don’t you all know that I am the King of the Jungle! How dare
anyone disturb the peace of my kingdom?”
On hearing this the elephant, who was one of the high ministers in the
jungle kingdom, replied in a soothing voice, and said: “My Lord, there is no
disturbance of the peace in your kingdom. I have only been having a little
discussion with my friend here as to the possession of this little hut which your
lordship sees me occupying.”
The lion, who wanted to have “peace and tranquility” in his kingdom,
replied in a noble voice, saying: “I command my ministers to appoint a
Commission of Enquiry to go thoroughly into this matter and report
accordingly.” He then turned to the man and said: “You have done well by
establishing friendship with my people, especially with the elephant who is one
of my honourable ministers of state. Do not grumble any more, your hut is not
lost to you. Wait until the sitting of my Imperial Commission, and there you will
PRACTICE HYGIENE PROTOCOLS AT ALL TIMES 23
be given plenty of opportunity to state your case. I am sure that you will be
pleased with the findings of the Commission.” The man was very pleased by
these sweet words from the King of the Jungle, and innocently waited for his
opportunity, in the belief that naturally the hut would be returned to him.
The elephant, obeying the command of his master, got busy with other
ministers to appoint the Commission of Enquiry. The following elders of the
jungle were appointed to sit in the Commission: (1) Mr. Rhinoceros; (2) Mr.
Buffalo; (3) Mr. Alligator; (4) The Rt. Hon. Mr. Fox to act as chairman; and (5) Mr.
Leopard to act as Secretary to the Commission. On seeing the personnel, the
man protested and asked if it was not necessary to include in this Commission
a member from his side. But he was told that it was impossible, since no one
from his side was well enough educated to understand the intricacy of jungle
law. Further, that there was nothing to fear, for the members of the Commission
were all men of repute for their impartiality in justice, and as they were
gentlemen chosen by God to look after the interest of race less adequately
endowed with teeth and claws, he might rest assured that they would investigate
the matter with the greatest care and report impartially.
The Commission sat to take the evidence. The Rt. Hon. Mr. Elephant was
first called. He came along with a superior air, brushing his tusks with a sapling
which Mrs. Elephant had provided, and in an authoritative voice said:”
Gentlemen of the Jungle, there is no need for me to waste your valuable time in
relating a story which I am sure you all know. I have always regarded it as my
duty to protect the interests of my friends, and this appears to have caused the
misunderstanding between myself and my friend here. He invited me to save his
hut from being blown away by a hurricane. As the hurricane had gained access
owing to the unoccupied space in the hut, I considered it necessary, in my
friend’s own interest, to turn the undeveloped space to a more economic use by
sitting in it myself; a duty which any of you would undoubtedly have performed
with equal readiness in similar circumstances.”
After hearing the Rt. Hon. Mr. Elephant’s conclusive evidence, the
Commission called Mr. Hyena and other elders of the jungle, who all supported
what Mr. Elephant had said. They then called the man, who began to give his
own account of the dispute. But the Commission cut him short, saying: “My
good man, please confine yourself to relevant issues. We have already heard
the circumstances from various unbiased sources; all we wish you to tell us is
whether the undeveloped space in your hut was occupied by anyone else before
Mr. Elephant assumed his position?”
The man began to say; “No, but ...”
But at this point the Commission declared that they had heard sufficient
evidence from both sides and retired to consider their decision. After enjoying
a delicious meal at the expense of the Rt. Hon. Mr. Elephant, they reached their
verdict, called the man, and declared as follows: “In our opinion this dispute has
arisen through a regrettable misunderstanding due to the backwardness of your
ideas. We consider that Mr. Elephant has fulfilled his sacred duty of protecting
PRACTICE HYGIENE PROTOCOLS AT ALL TIMES 24
your interests. As it is clearly for your good that the space should be put to its
most economic use, and as you yourself have not yet reached the stage of
expansion which would enable you to fill it, we consider it necessary to arrange
a compromise to suit both parties. Mr. Elephant shall continue his occupation
of your hut, but we give you permission to look for a site where you can build
another hut more suited to your needs, and we will see that you are well
protected.”
The man, having no alternative, and fearing that his refusal might expose
him to the teeth and claws of members of the Commission, did as they
suggested. But no sooner had he built another hut than Mr. Rhinoceros charged
in with his horn lowered and ordered the man to quit. A Royal Commission was
again appointed to look into the matter, and the same finding was given. This
procedure was repeated until Mr. Buffalo, Mr. Leopard, Mr. Hyena and the rest
were all accommodated with new huts. Then the man decided that he must adopt
an effective method of protection, since Commissions of Enquiry did not seem
to be of any use to him. He sat down and said: “Ng-enda thi ndeagaga motegi,”
which literally means, “there is nothing that treads on the earth that cannot be
trapped,” or in other words, you can fool people for a time, but not forever.
Early one morning, when the huts already occupied by the jungle lords were all
beginning to decay and fall to pieces, he went out and built a bigger and better
hut a little distance away. No sooner had Mr. Rhinoceros seen it than he came
rushing in, only to find that Mr. Elephant was already inside, sound asleep. Mr.
Leopard next came in at the window, Mr. Lion, Mr. Fox, and Mr. Buffalo entered
the doors, while Mr. Hyena howled for a place in the shade and Mr. Alligator
basked on the roof. Presently they all began disputing about their rights of
penetration, and from disputing they came to fighting, and while they were all
embroiled together the man set the hut on fire and burnt it to the ground, jungle
lords and all. Then he went home saying: “Peace is costly, but it’s worth the
expense,” and lived happily ever after.

WRITING A JOURNAL ENTRY

Background Information for Learners


Are you stricken with the thought of having elusive dreams, totally hampered
and prisonlike life this moment of pandemic? Or are you just goofing around yet feeling
bored during the quarantine period?
Writing different journal entries can be your avenue to plank down your loaded
thoughts into varied meaningful compositions. Let your inner being, sensuality and
imagination hover onto various pages and journey in the world of words.
So, what exactly are journal entries?
Journal entries are individual pieces of writing that populate your journal. They
are expressions of personal growth, interests, opinions, feelings and even mundane
things that a person has done and encountered in a day. Specifically, a journal is a
record that stores every detail of your life ranging from events, ideas, feelings, and
your daily thoughts and memories. It usually comes in between 500-1000 words and
may not be connected or related to a previous or a following entry unless stated.
Journal entry is considered private since it is where you can be able to write
with no holds barred and you can definitely spill even your most random train of
thoughts.
DIFFERENT KINDS OF JOURNAL:
1. A daily journal to record memorable moments in your life.
2. A reflective journal to track your experience and a space to pour out your
feelings.
PRACTICE HYGIENE PROTOCOLS AT ALL TIMES 26
3. A gratitude journal to write a list of things you are grateful for today.
4. A travel journal to log your excursion.
5. A dream journal to record your dreams on a regular basis, track their themes,
and patterns over time.
6. A school journal to keep track of assignments, or to write about theories and
parts of the syllabus that confuse you.
7. A project journal to tackle any type of project, be it learning a new recipe or
writing a song; to keep constant notes is the best way to succeed.
8. A diet journal to keep track of eating habits and physical symptoms when
struggling with a chronic illness such as diabetes.
9. A journal therapy allows a person to write down, dialogue with, and analyse
their issues and concerns. The practice allows people to be reflective,
introspective, and intentional about their writing.
10. A family journal is a simple way of keeping memories and fun of family events
that you can enjoy again and again.
HOW TO WRITE A JOURNAL ENTRY

STRUCTURE- It can be varied in length and elements. You can add paragraphs and
ensure that it is readable.
STYLE- Informal style. Be wary of using text and street language. It needs to be
creatively done and comprehensible.
CONTENT-Try to give insights and interesting information. Write about things which
will allow you to delve deeper and allows you to creatively scribble a composition.
MAKING IT INTERESTING- Making your writing humorous, witty or simply unique-
you can have the modern iteration of journal writing which is blogging. Make
observations or analyze something where you can reveal unusual or unique ideas.
Include important dates and intelligent ideas.
CHARACTERIZATION- Feel free to create your own character. Journal or blogs do
not have to be written as you. Put a little thought into it and not try to include old cliché
.Do not be offensive either.

Learning Competency: Write journal entries and other short compositions exploring
key elements of fiction
