LITERATURE 6 : Plot

Hye kids….

I forgot to update another important aspect in literature entries….

I'm so sorry....

in this entry want to teach you about PLOT….

Do you guys know what is PLOT?

So, what is

 Plot?
  

• Plot is a literary term for the events a story comprises, particularly as they relate to one another in a pattern, a sequence, through cause and effect, or by coincidence.

• Plot is considered as a narrative structure that divided a story into five parts, which are: exposition (of the situation); rising action (through conflict); climax (or turning point); falling action; and resolution.

Stages	Explanation
Exposition	The exposition introduces all of the main characters in the story. It shows how they relate to one another, what their goals and motivations are, and the kind of person they are. Most importantly, in the exposition the audience gets to know the main character, and the main character gets to know his goal and what is at stake if he fails to attain his goal.
Rising Action	It starts with the introduction of conflict. Generally, in this phase the protagonist understands his goal and begins to work toward it. Smaller problems thwart his initial success, and in this phase his progress is directed primarily against these secondary obstacles. This phase shows us how he overcomes these obstacles.
Climax	The point of climax is the turning point of the story, where the main character makes the single big decision that defines the outcome of their story and who they are as a person. The dramatic phase occupies the middle of the story, and that contains the point of climax. The beginning of this phase is marked by the protagonist finally having cleared away the preliminary barriers and being ready to engage with the adversary. Usually, entering this phase, both the protagonist and the antagonist have a plan to win against the other.
Falling action	In this phase, the villain has the upper hand. It seems that evil will triumph. The protagonist has never been further from accomplishing the goal. This is true both in tragedies and comedies, because both of these types of play classically show good winning over evil. The question is which side the protagonist has put himself on, and this may not be immediately clear to the audience.
Resolution	This is a final confrontation between the protagonist and antagonist, where one or the other decisively wins. This phase is the story of that confrontation, of what leads up to it, of why it happens the way it happens, what it means, and what its long-term consequences are.

This is all for Plot…
