Point of View

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked. “What’s happened to me?” he thought. An excerpt from Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka

Point of View First Person — narrated using I or we We ran so fast from the graveyard that our lungs were on fire.

Point of View Third Person — narrated using he, she, or they Phoebe stared at the crime scene. She waited for Ray to offer to take the lead on this case. But he didn’t, and she wondered why. Third Person Limited — written from the point of view of a single character Phoebe stared at the crime scene. She waited for Ray to offer to take the lead on this case. But he didn’t, and she wondered why. Earlier that day, the commander had pulled Ray aside and said, “You need to let Phoebe take the next case. She needs the experience,” Ray shrugged his shoulders and gave a nod. He was perfectly happy to step aside and see what Phoebe could do. Third Person Omniscient — the narrator knows what all the characters think and feel

Guided Practice with Point of View Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. My father had often, during my imprisonment, heard me make the same assertion [of my guilt]; when I thus accused myself, he sometimes deemed to desire an explanation, and at others he appeared to consider it as caused by delirium, and that during my illness, some idea of this kind had presented itself to my imagination… I avoided explanation, and maintained a continual silence concerning the wretched [creature] I had created. I had a feeling that I should be supposed mad, and this forever chained my tongue, when I would have given the whole world to have confided the fatal secret. Upon this occasion, my father said, with an expression of unbound wonder, “What do you mean, Victor? Are you mad? My dear son, I entreat you never to make such an assertion.” An excerpt from Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
