OMAM CHAPTER 3 LITERARY TERMS

THEME Definition: a central message or insight into life revealed through a literary work The theme of a literary work may be stated directly or implied. When the theme of a work is implied, readers think about what the work suggests about people or life. Archetypal themes are those that occur in folklore and literature across the world and throughout history. Ill-fated love, the theme of Romeo and Juliet, is an example of such a theme.

ONOMATOPOEIA Definition: the use of words that imitate sounds Examples: whirr thud hiss

FORESHADOWING Definition: the use of clues that suggest events that have yet to occur This technique helps create suspense, keeping readers wondering about what will happen next.

CONFLICT Definition: a struggle between opposing forces Characters in conflict form the basis of stories, novels, and plays. Internal Conflict : involves a character in conflict with himself or herself. Man vs. Self: character struggles with his or her own thoughts or actions

CONFLICT External Conflict : the main character struggles against an outside force Man vs. Man: character against another character Man vs. Society: character against the standards or expectations of a group Man vs. Nature: character against nature, supernatural force, or machine (for example: a fallen tree, a storm, a sharknado, a ghost, a robot, a computer, etc.)
