- Find out on the web 2 different links where narrative essay writing is explained and summarise the main characteristics. In which way is it different from discursive essay writing?
Some of the main characteristics of the narrative essay are the followings:
- It is told from a particular point of view
- Makes and supports a point
- Is filled with precise detail
- Uses vivid verbs and modifiers
- Uses conflict and sequence as does any story
- May use dialogues
- Clarity
- Do not describe each and every of your own movements
- Avoid the second person narrative
- To interest the reader, dynamic word choice is key
The goal of the discursive essay is to make people discuss the topic pointing different opinions. In this type of essay we are required to determine our position regarding the topic discussed, study opinions of oppponents and followers, and explain why one point is acceptable while the rest is not. On the other hand, the narrative essay is based on telling a story that has a specific point, such as teaching a lesson, it includes a plot with characters and is developed in a specific time and space.
