narrative or story is a report of connected events, real or imaginary, presented in a sequence of written or spoken words, or still or moving images,[1][2] or both. The word derives from the Latin verb narrare, "to tell", which is derived from the adjective gnarus, "knowing" or "skilled".[3]
Narrative can be organized in a number of thematic or formal categories: non-fiction (such as definitively including creative non-fiction, biography, journalism, transcript poetry, and historiography); fictionalization of historical events (such as anecdote, myth,legend, and historical fiction); and fictionproper (such as literature in prose and sometimes poetry, such as short stories,novels, and narrative poems and songs, and imaginary narratives as portrayed in other textual forms, games, or live or recorded performances).
Narrative is found in all forms of human creativity, art, and entertainment, includingspeech, literature, theatre, music and song,comics, journalism, film, television and video,video games, radio, gameplay, unstructured recreation, and performance in general, as well as some painting, sculpture, drawing,photography, and other visual arts, as long as a sequence of events is presented. Several art movements, such as modern art, refuse the narrative in favor of the abstract and conceptual.
Oral storytelling is the earliest method for sharing narratives. [4] During most people's childhoods, narratives are used to guide them on proper behavior, cultural history, formation of a communal identity, and values, as especially studied in anthropology today among traditional indigenous peoples.[5]
Narratives may also be nested within other narratives, such as narratives told by anunreliable narrator (a character) typically found in noir fiction genre. An important part of narration is the narrative mode, the set of methods used to communicate the narrative through a process narration (see also "Narrative Aesthetics" below).
Along with exposition, argumentation, anddescription, narration, broadly defined, is one of four rhetorical modes of discourse. More narrowly defined, it is the fiction-writing modein which the narrator communicates directly to the reader.
