GEORGE STRAIT A Farewell Tour Tickets- xxxx
Realistic fiction, although untrue, could actually happen. Some events, the people, and the places may even be real. It can be possible that in the future imagined events could physically happen. For example, Jules Verne's novel From The Earth To The Moon was proven possible in xxxx, when Neil Armstrong landed on the Moon. Another sub-genre that may be included in this is crime fiction like: Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle, Hercule Poirot by Agatha Christie, Gremlin Greaves by Svaj Darwin and so on. All these works depict a fictional but plausible story.However, even fantastic literature is bidimensional: it is situated between the poles of realism and the marvelous or mythic. Geographical details, character descriptions etc. create a rhetoric of realism, which "invites the reader to ignore the text's artifice, to suspend one's disbelief, exercise poetic faith and thereby indulge in the narrative's imaginative world". The bidimensionality appears within the story as astonishment or frightening. According to G. W. Young and G. Wolfe, fictional realities outside the text are evoked, and the reader's previous conceptions of reality are exposed as incomplete. Hence, "by fiction is one able to gain even fuller constructs of what constitutes reality". On the other hand, the infinite fictional possibilities signal the impossibility of fully knowing reality. There is no criterion to measure constructs of reality ? in the last resort they are "entirely fictional"Plot is what the character(s) did, said, and thought. It is the Action Proper given unity by the Enveloping Action, the Universal Action, the Archetypal Action. As Aristotle said, What gives a story unity is not as the masses believe that it is about one person but that it is about one action. Plot, or storyline, is often listed as one of the fundamental elements of fiction. It is the rendering and ordering of the events and actions of a story. On a micro level, plot consists of action and reaction, also referred to as stimulus and response. On a macro level, plot has a beginning, a middle, and an ending. Plot is often depicted as an arc with a zig-zag line to represent the rise and fall of action. Plot also has a mid-level structure: scene and summary.A scene is a unit of drama ? where the action occurs. Then, after a transition of some sort, comes the summary ? an emotional reaction and regrouping, an aftermath. For a delightful tongue-in-cheek comment on plot, see Katherine Anne Porter's "No Plot, My Dear, No Story" in The Occasional Writings and Collected Essays of Katherine Anne Porter, Seymour Lawrence, xxxx.Exposition is the portion of a narrative that introduces important background information to the reader (like events occurring before the main plot or a character's backstory) but is not part of the plot's action itself.[3] If the exposition is too didactic, it can kill the plot's momentum. Therefore a number of literary techniques are used to hide from, or otherwise misdirect, the reader's attention. These techniques include: flashbacks, incidental dialog (having a character refer to his sister as "Sis"), first-person thoughts of the past ("Years ago, when I was serving in Africa...") or projections into the future ("It was not until years later when I learned that...") and third-person, all-seeing narrative but split up into small pieces spread throughout the story.Foreshadowing is a technique used by authors to provide clues so the reader can predict what might occur later in the story. An author drops subtle hints about plot developments to come later in the story. It prepares the reader for later action and subsequent images so that the reader or spectator is not jarred and verisimilitude is maintained even in science fiction, fantasy, magical realism, and other genres that might otherwise test credulity. If such preparation is recognized as such by the reader or spectator, it may be ineffective and artificial.The rising action, in the narrative of a work of fiction, follows the exposition and leads up to the climax. The rising action's purpose is usually to build suspense all the way up the climactic finish. The rising action should not be confused with the middle of the story, but is the action right before the climax. The material beyond the climax is known as the falling action.In a work of fiction, the climax often resembles that of the classical comedy, occurring near the end of the text or performance, after the rising action and before the falling action. It is the moment of greatest danger for the protagonist(s) and usually consists of a seemingly inevitable prospect of failure ? it surprises you to the point that gets you excited to see what is to come in the end.Person vs. Self is the theme in literature that places a character against their own will, confusion, or fears. Person vs. Self can also be where a character tries to find out who they are or comes to a realization or a change in character. Although the struggle is internal, the character can be influenced by external forces. The struggle of the human being to come to a decision is the basis of Person vs. Self. Examples include the titular character of Beowulf. More recently, the Academy Award winning movie A Beautiful Mind has been posited as an application of Person vs. Self. Faulkner in his Nobel Prize acceptance speech noted that the great stories are those of the human heart in conflict with itself. With that in mind the other conflicts enumerated here can fade into the background as part of the setting rather than the conflict-in-itself of any given story. A simple, ready example may be Jack London's "To Build a Fire" wherein we can see that the conflict is not Man vs. Nature but Man vs. His Own Nature.Person vs. Person is a theme in literature in which the main character's conflict with another person is the focus of the story. An example is the hero's conflicts with the central villain of a work, which may play a large role in the plot and contribute to the development of both characters. There are usually several confrontations before the climax is reached. The conflict is external. An example is the conflict between Judah and Messala in Ben-Hur, as would be the conflict between a bully and his victim.Person vs. Society is a theme in fiction in which a main character's, or group of main characters', main source of conflict is social traditions or concepts. In this sense, the two parties are: a) the protagonist(s); b) the society of which the protagonist(s) are included. Society itself is often looked at as a single character, just as an opposing party would be looked at in a Person vs. Person conflict. This can also be one protagonist against a group or society of antagonists or society led by some antagonistic force. Examples in literature would include the short story "The Ones that Walk away from Omelas" by Ursula Le Guin or the novel Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë.Person vs. Nature is the theme in literature that places a character against forces of nature. Many disaster films focus on this theme, which is predominant within many survival stories. It is also strong in stories about struggling for survival in remote locales, such as Gary Paulson's Hatchet or Jack London's short story "To Build a Fire".Person vs. Supernatural is a theme in literature that places a character against supernatural forces. When an entity is in conflict with him-, her-, or itself, the conflict is categorized as internal, otherwise, it is external. Such stories are often seen in Freudian Criticism as representations of id vs. superego. Bram Stoker's Dracula is a good example of this, as well as Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and Christabel by Samuel Coleridge. It is also very common in comic books.The term "symbolism" is limited to use in contrast to "representationalism"; defining the general directions of a linear spectrum ? where in all symbolic concepts can be viewed in relation, and where changes in context may imply systemic changes to individual and collective definitions of symbols. "Symbolism" may refer to a way of choosing representative symbols in line with abstract rather than literal properties, allowing for the broader interpretation of a carried meaning than more literal concept-representations allow. A religion can be described as a language of concepts related to human spirituality. Symbolism hence is an important aspect of most religions.The interpretation of abstract symbols has had an important role in religion and psychoanalysis. As envisioned by Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, symbols are not the creations of mind, but rather are distinct capacities within the mind to hold a distinct piece of information. In the mind, the symbol can find free association with any number of other symbols, can be organized in any number of ways, and can hold the connected meanings between symbols as symbols in themselves. Jung and Freud diverged on the issue of common cognitive symbol systems and whether they could exist only within the individual mind or among other minds; whether any cognitive symbolism was defined by innate symbolism or by the influence of the environment around them.Metaphor (from the Greek language: Meaning "apply", literally "carry across") is language that directly compares seemingly unrelated subjects. It is a figure of speech that compares two or more things not using like or as. In the simplest case, this takes the form: "The [first subject] is a [second subject]." More generally, a metaphor is a rhetorical trope that describes a first subject as being or equal to a second object in some way. Thus, the first subject can be economically described because implicit and explicit attributes from the second subject are used to enhance the description of the first. This is known for usage in literature, especially in poetry, where with few words, emotions and associations from one context are associated with objects and entities in a different context. A simpler definition is the comparison of two unrelated things without using the words "like" or "as".In history, film, television and other media, a flashback (also called analepsis) is an interjected scene that takes the narrative back in time from the current point the story has reached. Flashbacks are often used to recount events that happened prior to the story's primary sequence of events or to fill in crucial backstory. Character origin flashbacks specifically refers to flashbacks dealing with key events early in a character's development (Clark Kent discovering he could fly, for example, or the Elric brothers' attempt to bring back their mother). The television show Lost is particularly well known for extensive use of flashbacks in almost every episode. In the opposite direction, a flashforward (or prolepsis) reveals events that occur in the future. The technique is used to create suspense in a story, or develop a character. In literature, internal analepsis is a flashback to an earlier point in the narrative; external analepsis is a flashback to before the narrative started.The Internet has had a major impact on the distribution of fiction, calling into question the feasibility of copyright as a means to ensure royalties are paid to copyright holders. Also, digital libraries such as Project Gutenberg make public domain texts more readily available. The combination of inexpensive home computers, the Internet and the creativity of its users has also led to new forms of fiction, such as interactive computer games or computer-generated comics. Countless forums for fan fiction can be found online, where loyal followers of specific fictional realms create and distribute derivative stories. The Internet is also used for the development of blog fiction, where a story is delivered through a blog either as flash fiction or serialblog, and collaborative fiction, where a story is written sequentially by different authors, or the entire text can be revised by anyone using a wikiThis year has seen a bumper crop of first novels. Norwegian By Night by Derek B Miller (Faber), winner of the Crime Writers' Association John Creasey Dagger, is the funny, moving and gripping story of cantankerous 82-year-old widower and ex-marine Sheldon Horowitz, uprooted from his native New York to Oslo, who finds himself on the run with the six-year-old son of a murdered neighbour and the ghosts of his past. Equally original and convincing as a character is Mollel, the Maasai-warrior-turned-policeman protagonist of Richard Crompton's debut, The Honey Guide (Weidenfeld & Nicholson), which is set against the background of Kenya's xxxx general election and the subsequent eruption of ethnic violence. Also set in Africa, MD Villier's first novel, City of Blood (Harvill Secker), is both a touching coming-of-age story and a vivid picture of the Johannesburg underworld.nspector Avi Avraham, protagonist of the prosaically titled The Missing File (Quercus) by DA Mishani, translated by Steven Cohen, has a theory about why there are no detective novels in Hebrew. "We don't have crimes like that ? serial killers, kidnappings," he says. So, when a 16-year-old boy goes missing from a Tel Aviv suburb, he's not too bothered ? the kid's bound to turn up soon. He doesn't, of course, and it becomes clear that things are not all that they seem ? An assured debut, with a wholly unexpected resolution.Every bit as compelling and unnerving as last year's psychological crime fiction hit, Gone Girl, The Silent Wife (Headline) is the first novel from Canadian author ASA Harrison ? and also, sadly, the last, as she died in April. The cracks in Jodi and Todd's 20-year-old relationship are carefully plastered over to create the veneer of two successful lives well lived. The slow, insidious disintegration towards the point where murder makes perfect sense is appalling, and appallingly plausible, in its inevitability.Kent (Picador) is a first novel. Based on the last case of capital punishment in Iceland, in xxxx, it's meticulously researched, with the past so strongly evoked that one can almost smell it: a simple, moving story, told with confidence. Another essential read for those who enjoy historical crime is The Scent of Death by the consistently excellent Andrew Taylor (Harper Collins), winner of this year's CWA Ellis Peters historical award. Set in New York during the American war of independence, and exciting and atmospheric in equal measure, it's the tale of British civil servant Edward Savill, whose brief is to "report on the administration of justice" and who finds himself investigating a murder in a city made lawless and desperate by conflict.Writing an emotionally disconnected protagonist is a difficult trick to pull off, but Belinda Bauer manages it with Patrick, a young man with Asperger's syndrome, who becomes an anatomy student because he is obsessed with death. Her fourth novel, Rubbernecker, is intriguing, disturbing and intelligentIt's been a very good year for thrillers, too, especially those dealing with recent history. Ratlines by Stuart Neville (Harvill Secker) and Ostland by David Thomas (Quercus) both address the aftermath of the second world war, and The Twelfth Department by William Ryan (Mantle) is set in xxxxs Stalinist Russia. Roger Hobbs's stunning debut Ghostman (Doubleday), winner of the CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger for best thriller, is set in present-day Atlantic City, where a casino heist goes spectacularly wrong. With "bodies everywhere, loot missing, feds circling", the eponymous ghostman, Jack (not his real name, of course), is called in by criminal mastermind Marcus Hayes to sort things out ? and some serious violence results. Taut and stylish, this is an outstanding read.It will be observed that the greater part of this littlebook has been taken in one form or other from Lockhart'sLife of Sir Walter Scott, in ten volumes. No introductionto Scott would be worth much in which that course wasnot followed. Indeed, excepting Sir Walter's own writings,there is hardly any other great source of informationabout him; and that is so full, that hardly anything needfulto illustrate the subject of Scott's life remains untouched.As regards the only matters of controversy,---Scott's relations to the Ballantynes, I have taken care tocheck Mr. Lockhart's statements by reading those of therepresentatives of the Ballantyne brothers; but with thisexception, Sir Walter's own works and Lockhart's lifeof him are the great authorities concerning his characterand his story. A climax often includes three elements. The most important element is that the protagonist experiences a change. The main character discovers something about himself or herself, and another unknown character. The last element is revealing the theme itself.Conflict is generally speaking a necessary element of fictional literature. As Brooks and Warren said in Understanding Fiction and as many others have noted, no conflict, no story. Often it is difficult for readers to discern conflict in sophisticated fiction but its locus is always focused on the protagonist. In order for the story to engage the reader or spectator, the conflict can usually be discerned as immediate, urgent, and insoluble. Furthermore, the conflict that is one between good and evil depends upon whether the reader or spectator prefers good or evil and is thus a slight story at best. It is defined as the problem in any piece of literature and is often classified according to the nature of the protagonist or antagonist, as follows:
