Todorov's Narrative Theory / Structure

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Narrative Structure, this was a narrative theory which Todorov discovered.

The theory, has the idea of each narrative sequence to follow a certain rule which is the structure uploaded in this post.

 We begin with the Equilibrium, the characters diegetic world before the events of the story unfold. The protagonist and the antagonist, the good and the bad. Then we have the disruption, caused by the antagonist, then followed by the quest of the protagonist to correct the antagonists bad deeds. The final part of the structure is the Climax/Resolution, followed by a Re- Equilibrium. The Re-Equilibrium being that the antagonist Robber is then captured by the Protagonist police officer.
