Blog Week 2B

Rhetorical elements that are found in narrative writing are useful in many ways. The rhetorical elements help the readers to understand the text within the narrative. They also help to make narratives become more realistic, and making the readers feel as though they are actually there within the story while it is taking place. Rhetorical tools help to make narrative stories/writing come alive. The way that rhetorical tools are used in narratives vary from story to story, mostly depending on who the target audience for that specific story is. While writing a narrative, it is very important to continue keeping in mind who and what the audience is. Whether you are writing for a specific age group, or a group of soccer players, football players, cheerleaders, etc.
A Story Grammar is just one example of the rhetorical tools that may be used during writing a narrative. The setting, theme, plot, and the resolution of the narrative, as well as the characters are all structual elements which make up a story grammar. The plot of the story grammar is also broken down into four different parts, which include a problem, a response, the action and the outcome. Understanding these four parts of the plot, will help the reader to comprehend the story, making it easier to follow the story line while they visualize the story within their head.
