Conflict in Literature

What is “conflict” in a story? *problem *tension *good vs. evil

Why is CONFLICT important? Without conflict, there is no plot! The plot is created around the conflict… The conflict is introduced in rising action… Is faced head-on during climax… Begins to work itself out during falling action… Is resolved during resolution.

EXTERNAL CONFLICT An external conflict is between a character and an outside force. Man vs. Man Man vs. Nature Man vs. Society

MAN vs. MAN A character struggles with another character. Protagonist vs. Antagonist The classic “good guy” vs. “bad guy” situation Can you think of any examples?

MAN vs. NATURE A character struggles with a force of nature (natural disaster, desolation, animal, etc.) Usually, the character is struggling to survive. Can you think of any examples?

MAN vs. SOCIETY In this conflict, a character or a group of characters fight against the society in which they live. The character fights against social traditions or rules (fight for freedom, rights, for a cause etc.) Society becomes a “character” of its own Usually used to comment on positive or negative aspects of real society (SATIRE) Can you think of any examples?

INTERNAL CONFLICT An internal conflict is between a character and his/her self. Man vs. Self

MAN vs. SELF The character’s struggle takes place in his/her own mind. Usually has something to do with a choice (choosing between right and wrong), or it may have to do with overcoming emotions or mixed feelings. Can you think of any examples?

OTHER TYPES OF CONFLICT Man vs. Supernatural Gods, ghosts, monsters, spirits, aliens, etc. Man vs. Fate Fight for choice; fight against destiny Man vs. Technology Computers, machines, etc.
