Riguardo questo articolo

Print on Demand. This book guides prospective writers by viewing the significance of Plot in effective storytelling and showcases the creative development found within all fiction and drama. The author emphasizes that originality is found more in the treatment than the plot itself, drawing on Shakespeareâ s use of well-known plot devices in his works as an example. With this in mind, the author reviews the history of storytelling through fairy tales, mythology, religion, history, and other mediums, referencing specific works and figures to illustrate the interconnectedness of the human experience and its portrayal in literature. An analysis of the fundamental dramatic situations allows the author to conclude that while there are finite design combinations in drama, the individual interpretation and application of these elements by the creative writer is what breathes life into the plot and captivates the audience. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
