Greatauthors in the history of the world such as Shakespeare, Confucious,and Krishna were able to do that. Besides, I have learned about thebasic structure of a beautiful story in the literature which includesplot, character, and description.
Theplot in the works of literature signifies the core plan of a storyand refers to the problem, person, and solution. It also shows howthe problems and obstacles came about and the outcome at the end ofthe story. Secondly, I learned that a character is the development ofa person in a written work. It helps a reader to visualize theactivities in the works of literature through their thinking,speaking, and actions in the story. Description in literature worksmeans the sensory details regarding the character and the actions ofthe character in the story. The use of various literature symbolssuch as metaphor helps individuals to visualize the person in thestory.
