• Analyzing this short story from a structuralist-formalist approach requires breaking down the story into its components. Observing each and every plot element individually, the expository parts, the rising and falling action, and the climax
• The issue with utilizing this approach for "The Story of Keesh" is that it fails to take into account the cultural aspects into account. Keesh's relationship with nature, Inuit customs, and beliefs, as well as the symbolism are only apparent if the reader chooses to think a little deeper. To fully grasp the meaning and importance of the story requires the reader to not only think about the structure and story elements but to also think for themselves.
