Week 2 Discussion 2

In the stories you have read in Chapters 4-7, you have been introduced to several kinds of characters. Using a story that is different than the one you analyzed in the Literary Techniques and Their Connection to Conflict in Literature discussion, describe a character you sympathize with by answering the following questions: 

• Why did this character interest you? What choices does the character make, and how do the choices (or the result of the choices) contribute to the theme of the story?
• What kind of conflict (internal/external) did this character encounter, and how did he/she handle it?
• How does the setting contribute to the character’s development?
• How does the setting contribute to the character’s experience and give the story more meaning?

As you consider these questions and answer them, incorporate readings found in Chapters 4-7 to help illustrate the points you make. Your initial post should be at least 200 words in length. The minimum word count does not include references.
