Question

Plot is the artificial ordering of events. True or False

Answer 1

FALSE.

The plot is the chaining of the facts narrated in a text.

It is the element that gives sequence to a history, since it is around the plot that all the events of a narrative are developed. So even though there may be some artificiality, this is not a rule. The plot is the most important part of the story as it involves all the facts, characters and time within the story.

The plot can be linear or non-linear. The linear plot is one whose facts follow a chronological sequence. In the nonlinear plot there is no sequence, which can be presented by the end or be revealed gradually throughout the narrative.

Answer 2

False, it may or may not be artificial.
