1 Internal CONFLICT & Moral Dilemma

2 Today’s Warm-Up You are an inmate in a concentration camp. A sadistic guard is about to hang your son who tried to escape and wants you to pull the chair out from underneath him. He says that if you don’t, he will not only kill your son but some other innocent inmate as well. You don’t have any doubt that he means what he says. What would you do?

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

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

5 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?

6 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?

7 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?

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

9 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?

10 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.
