Day 2
I. Mini Lesson
What are literary genres? What are literary conventions?
I. Mini Lesson
You have been learning the different literary genres and its conventions. Now,
let me give you a deeper understanding on the elements of the literary genres.
b. Character, refers to the person in a work of fiction and his characteristics. He/ She
could be a protagonist or the central character in a story versus the antagonist or the
opposing character to the main character.
Characterization gives the reader details about the characters involve, which include
physical appearance, way of thinking, feeling, actions, and reactions to events.
c. Theme is the central idea of a literary work that can be termed as implied morals,
insights or values. In short, theme, is the underlying truths and realities of life consciously
and unconsciously created by the author and realized by the readers.
d. Setting pertains to the place, time, mood, atmosphere, weather, and social
conditions of a story. Authors use sounds and visual images to describe the setting. It
helps bring out the mood or backdrop or sets forth the conflict of the story.
e. Conflict means the complication in a story. The plot is created through the conflict.
The complications could be in a form of struggle, disagreement, war, verbal tussles, etc.
However, conflict can be (a) man versus man, where a character in pitted against human
characters; (b) man versus nature, where a character involves man against the forces of
nature and the universe; (c) man versus society, where conventions or culture challenges
msn and (d) man versus himself, or an internal struggle happening within a character.
f. Point of view takes the angle from where the story is narrated. It is the angles
from which the reader views the people, events and details of the story. An objective point
of view is an angle where the writer narrates what happens without detailing too much
about what the character’s feelings and thinking. Point of view can be in first person,
second person, third person limited, or third person omniscient.
g. Tone, is an element of the story that evokes varied feelings derived from the voice
or inflections of a character. It can include word choice, grammatical structure, diction, or
imagery. It can also be determined through the author’s attitude toward the subject,
literary devices used, and musicality of language.
Day 4
I. Mini Lesson
Since you have been learning the different literary elements , today you will
be enjoying more of the similarity and contrast of its character in the story. Let us know how
did the old man live in the village.
An old man lived in the village. He was one of the most unfortunate people in the world.
The whole village was tired of him; he was always gloomy, he constantly complained and
was always in a bad mood.
The longer he lived, the more bile he was becoming and the more poisonous were his
words. People avoided him, because his misfortune became contagious. It was even
unnatural and insulting to be happy next to him.
But one day, when he turned eighty years old, an incredible thing happened. Instantly
everyone started hearing the rumour:
“An Old Man is happy today, he doesn’t complain about anything, smiles, and
even his face is freshened up.”
The whole village gathered together. The old man was asked:
“Nothing special. Eighty years I’ve been chasing happiness, and it was useless. And then I
decided to live without happiness and just enjoy life. That’s why I’m happy now.” – An Old Man
1. What was the attitude of the old man towards the villagers as depicted
from the story?
3. What are the feelings of the villagers against the old man?
