III. PLOT

The plot is the logical arrangement of events in a story or play. The plot is organized.
logical series of events having a beginning, middle, and end.

Kinds of Plot

1. Linear Plot

In literature, a linear plot begins at a certain point, moves through a series of events to a
climax and then ends up at another point. Also known as the plot structure of Aristotle, it
 is possible to represent a linear plot line with the drawing of an arc.
The primary advantage of using a linear plot is that the reader knows, or at least has an
idea, of where the plot goes next, and the reader is guaranteed to get a beginning and
ending.
a) Introduction - The beginning of the story where the characters and the setting are
revealed.
b) Rising Action - This is where the events in the story become complicated and the
conflict in the story is revealed (events between the introduction and climax).
c) Climax - This is the highest point of interest and the turning point of the story. The
reader wonders what will happen next; will the conflict be resolved or not?
d) Falling action - The events and complications begin to resolve themselves. The reader
knows what has happened next and if the conflict was resolved or not (events between
climax and denouement).
e) Denouement - This is the final outcome or untangling of events in the story.

2. Modular Plot

Nonlinear narrative, disjointed narrative or disrupted narrative is a narrative technique,

sometimes used in literature, film, hypertext websites and other narratives, where
events are portrayed, for example out of chronological order, or in other ways where the
narrative does not follow the direct causality pattern of the events featured, such as
parallel distinctive plot lines, dream immersions or narrating another story inside the
main plot-line. It is often used to mimic the structure and recall of human memory, but
has been applied for other reasons as well.

It is a story that does not follow a linear narrative. That is, it doesn't move in a
chronological order, instead jumping around within the story or between different
stories. Sometimes, the different sections don't even feature the same characters or
world. Instead, they are united by thematic meaning.

3. Episodic Plot
Made up of a series of chapters or stories linked together by the same character, place,
or theme but held apart by their individual plot, purpose, and subtext.
4.5 Application The teacher will let students watch a 5 minute clip of “Icarus and Daedalus.”

The teacher will ask the following questions:

1. What is the moral of the story?
2. How did the author start the story? What is the feeling that the author wants to
imply?
3. How do characters' actions affect the other character?
4. Who are the important characters? What qualities do they portray?
5. How did the characters resolve the problem?
