  8. Message GustaveDoré - Andromeda

  9. The title is composed from only a word. It gives one information about the text. It talks about a girl who is called Eveline. BACK

  10. A girl is sited in front a window. Her name is Eveline. She is watching the people across the street. In the same time she is thinking about her life, her memories, her future. She is bored about her routine and her drunk father. She wants to escape with her boyfriend. Eveline is on the pier with Frank. But something happens, or exactly something doesn’t happen. BACK

  11. Omniscient narrator is everywhere in the story and knows anything about characters’ histories, thoughts, feelings, qualities and defects. BACK

  12. Inner narrator adopts a character’s point of view or his point of view. BACK

  13. External narrator is out of the story. He observes the events and tells the actions and dialogs between characters. He does not know characters’ thought. BACK

  14. Direct speech is a style that reports the dialogue between one person, two persons or more ones. We can recognise it by the punctuation (inverted commas). Example:“Miss Hill, don’t you see these ladies are waiting?”“Look lively, Miss Hill, please” Eveline from line 46 to 47 BACK

  15. Indirect speechis a style of third-person narration. It reports the sentence of character using the reporting verbs. Example:He said she used to squander the money, that she had no head, he wasn’t going to give her … Eveline from line 64 to 69 BACK

  16. Free indirect speech is a style of third-person narration which uses some of the characteristics of third-person along with the essence of direct speech.Example: She had consented to go away, to leave her home. Was that wise? She tried to weigh each side of the question. Eveline from line 36 to 37. BACK

  17. Free direct speechshows the shift of narration to reporting without the inverted commas.It represents the characters’ mental reactions to what they see or experience.Example:Home! She looked round the room … Eveline from line 24 BACK

  18. Showing is the direct presentation of events and conversation, the narrator seeming to disappear (as in drama) and the reader being left to draw his own conclusion from what he “hears” an “sees”. BACK

  19. Telling is a presentation mediated by the narrator who, instead of directly and dramatically exhibiting events and conversation, talks about them, sums them up, etc. BACK

  20. The omniscient narrator knows all about Eveline’s mind. He characterizes the protagonist telling her thought, feelings, emotion and memories. He takes more attention on her memories to underline her links with the past. BACK

  21. The narrator describes Frank from Eveline point of view. He appears as the perfect man. He is a sailor. In there period sailors were thought to be a bad husband, because they are always far from home. This is confirmed from Eveline’s father. BACK
