Another example would be'story structure'. The plot of a fictional story is essentially its structure. For instance, in a detective story, the story structure (or plot) usually starts with a crime being committed, then the detective's investigation, followed by various clues and red herrings, until the final revelation of the culprit. This overall pattern is the plot presented in the form of story structure.
A possible name for plot in a fictional story is 'event sequence'. Consider a fairy - tale like 'Cinderella'. The event sequence (the plot) includes Cinderella's mistreatment by her step - family, the arrival of the fairy godmother, going to the ball, losing the glass slipper, and finally being united with the prince. All these events in order make up the plot, which can be named as 'event sequence'.
One example could be 'plot deviation'. This means the plot goes in a different way than it seemed to be going. For instance, in a romantic story, when the two characters who seem to be falling in love suddenly find out they are related.
Sure. 'He told a tall tale about the huge fish he caught yesterday.' Here 'tall tale' is another name for fish story.
Autobiographical account.
In 'The Devil in the White City' by Erik Larson, Daniel Burnham is a real person. The book tells a fictionalized account of events around the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, and Burnham was a key figure in the actual planning and execution of the fair.
In 'Pride and Prejudice', the conclusion could be called the 'outcome'. At the end, Elizabeth and Darcy get married, which is the final outcome of their relationship that has been developing throughout the novel.
A salutary story. It is a story that has a beneficial or moralizing effect. It aims to improve the reader or listener in terms of moral understanding. An example could be a story about a lazy person who learns the value of hard work through a series of events in the story, and this serves as a salutary story for those who might be lazy as well.
A short fictional story could be this. In a far - off land, there was a wizard named Merlin. He had a small, but very special, cottage. One night, a shooting star landed near his cottage. From the star emerged a tiny fairy. The fairy was lost and Merlin decided to help her find her way back home. However, a group of evil goblins wanted to capture the fairy for her magic. Merlin had to use his powerful spells to protect the fairy and send her safely back to her own realm.
Sure. Once upon a time, in a far - away land, there was a little girl named Lily. She lived in a small cottage at the edge of a big forest. One day, while exploring the forest, she found a talking squirrel. The squirrel told her about a hidden treasure deep in the forest. Lily decided to search for it. After days of looking, she finally found a chest full of shiny jewels and gold coins.
Naturalistic fiction. It has similarities with realistic fiction. Naturalistic fiction often looks at the world from a scientific or deterministic perspective, showing how characters are influenced by their environment, heredity, and social conditions, which is also an important part of realistic fiction that aims to present a believable view of the world. For example, works by Emile Zola are considered naturalistic and share traits with realistic fiction.
There is also 'The Penelopiad' which is based on 'The Odyssey'. It is told from the perspective of Penelope, Odysseus' wife. The original story in 'The Odyssey' focuses a lot on Odysseus' journey, but 'The Penelopiad' delves into Penelope's own thoughts, her waiting for Odysseus, and the events that took place in Ithaca while he was away. It gives a whole new dimension to the well - known tale of Odysseus' long journey home.
