THE INSIDE STORY (an approach to structural analysis of narrative) Stressed THE INSIDE STORY: An approach to structural analysis of the story.
giving samples of a daring unwise, I intend to investigate how are the stories inside. Some call this the carpenter, other craft, and other hidden part of the iceberg.
Let us agree on the nomenclature. Every story has a few moments. I will simply follow the terminology used by most inspired by Roland Barthes.
According to these authors, the story consists of the following elements:
a) CORE: that is the important part of history, the facts without which there is no story. Taking as an example the story "Guadalupe" Angelika (please do not fuck me mania) the core is the fact the jay train to steal euros of the human statues of the Ramblas of Barcelona.
b) subnucleus, which are changes or turns that bring the story a different course. For example: Do not fare well on the banks of the Jalón and therefore going to Barcelona. Or change the euro cents to perfect robbery.
c) REPORTING: these are details that complete the action. For example, the sheet of newspaper was in the trash and dirty. The road brings bad news for the magpie: Cupid's arrow shoots a dove wimp.
d) HINTS: There are data on how are the characters, their qualities. For example: The magpie is very clever and cunning.
With these four sections we study the structure of the story. If the evidence will prevail quality. If there are many other informants will. If you have more than one core will be what it is.
With all the risk involved, let them.
Story with implicit permission (and suffered) by Angelika. Let's see if together we get something good out of the analysis. I am going to endeavor, although I predict success. If Don Fernando Lazaro Carreter lifted my head would spank. Greetings
circumspect.
now for apply theory to practice, using the story of Angelika:
GUADALUPE "This morning I arrived with my magpie to Barcelona. Just off the train in which we have fortunately been able to slip the reviewer, we found a euro on the platform. I've caught, I've taught Guadalupe and I said, 'Look, Lupe-only me-I may call it, a euro, in Barcelona we will be lucky we have not been on the banks of the Jalón. " Its black bill has answered me: "Eurico, Alphonse." I have answered that because no confusion with King Juan Carlos Eurico, the Visigoth king (known to the memory list), but because our people get used to ico suffix used to form diminutives.
