5. A story or account of events or experiences whether true or fictitious Techniques Irony Imagery Dialogue Style/Voice Reflection Pacing WHAT IS A NARRATIVE?

6. NARRATIVE TECHNIQUES Irony Irony: discrepancy in which events in a narrative turn out contrary but strongly appropriate to what is expected. Example: a stunt man jumps a car from a 50-foot building and survives unharmed, but then goes home, slips in the shower on some soap he spilled earlier that day and breaks his arm. Imagery Visually descriptive or figurative language. Creates a scene for any of the 5 senses. Example: He whiffed the aroma of brewed coffee.

7. NARRATIVE TECHNIQUES CONT. Dialogue Writing conversations. Makes it sounds like people are actually talking, can help you understand characters and can create interest. Example: “Oh, no! My bike has a flat!” shouted Jim. “Hey, don’t worry,” said Susan. “I’ve got a toolkit right here.” Style/Voice The way in which something is written. Influences the reader’s impression. The voice makes the writing sound uniquely like you. The tone of your writing can vary with the situation, but the voice will remain the same. Example: “Don’t play what’s there; play what’s not there.” –Miles Davis “The notes I handle no better than many pianists. But the pauses between the notes – ah, that is where the art resides.” - Artur Schnabel

8. NARRATIVE TECHNIQUES CONT. Reflection The narrator’s thoughts on what’s being narrated. Think about your purpose, what moments in your narrative do you need to reflect upon? Pacing How quickly your story unfolds. Cut away extra words (wordiness), any time you see that you wrote an idea twice, or with more words than you need, then delete the extra. Mix up the pacing, use different sentence types. Use short sentences with active verbs for scenes with intense action. Use longer sentences with more details with description, for slower scenes.

9. SLAVE NARRATIVES: DISCUSS/DON’T WRITE If you lived your whole life under oppressive conditions, do you think you’d be able to fight back? What do you think your most important tool for resistance might be?

11. How did you feel when I expected you to understand something that you didn’t know how to answer? Think about all the things you do each day that require you to be able to read. What are some of these things? How would your daily life be negatively impacted if you didn’t know how to read? How do you think other people would treat you if you couldn’t read? Imagine that there was a law passed when you were young that said it was illegal to teach people like you to read or write. How would you feel about that?

12. SLAVE NARRATIVE First appears in 1760; over 100 are published before the Civil War. Purpose: Persuade the South that slavery went against the moral and spiritual values of America. Exposed the shared humanity of Africans, thus their equal entitlement to basic rights. Exposed the inhumanity of the slave system. Truth/Authenticity: proving both the credibility (ETHOS) and quality for the treatment of slaves (PATHOS) Gave evidence of the humanity and intellectual equalities (LOGOS)

13. SLAVE NARRATIVE ELEMENTS Almost always begin with an introduction written by a white, wealthy editor. Typically centers on the narrator’s journey from slavery in the South to freedom in the North. Slavery is documented as a condition of extreme deprivation, necessitating increasingly forceful resistance. After detailing an escape, the slave’s attainment of freedom signaled not simply by reaching the “free states” of the North but by taking a new name and dedication to antislavery activism. Shows a commitment to both physical and intellectual freedoms. Deals with issues of truth, credibility, and reliability.

14. SKEWED VIEWS OF SLAVERY “The true definition of the term, as applicable to the domestic institution in the Southern States, is as follows: Slavery is the duty and obligation of the slave to labor for the mutual benefit of both master and slave, under a warrant to the slave of protection, and a comfortable subsistence, under all circumstances.” – E.N. Elliot, Letters to the North

15. FREDERICK DOUGLASS INTRO Focuses on the slave as an evolving person who is striving for physical and mental/spiritual freedom. Highlights rhetorical self-consciousness by incorporating into their stories trickster motifs from African American folk culture, extensive literary and Biblical allusions, and a perspective on the meaning of the slave’s flight from bondage to freedom.
