Defining Narrative
- Narrative plot.
- The voice of the story can vary - whose story is being told and from whose perspective?
- The way stories are told - how meaning is constructed and communicated.
- Organises time and space into a very compressed form.
- Groups events into cause and effects.
Narrative Story: Events as they happen/ in chronological order.
Narrative Plot: Events as they are presented to the audience by the author.
Structuralism
- Structuralists concern themselves with how meaning is established and maintained.
- Meaning is ATRIBUTED and is not already contained in the thing.
- Narratology is a branch of structuralism that studies the narrative of 'story' rather than individual tales in isolation.
If we were to make our film then we would be presenting the events that happen in chronological order. So the Narrative Story and Narrative Plot would be the same. It may contain some flashbacks of Harry thinking about when he found out that his parents had passed away.
