Art of storytelling evolves from "summary" of Aspects of the Novel by E M Forster
The art of storytelling is not static; it evolves over time. Novelists constantly experiment with new techniques to engage and captivate readers. As society changes, so too does the way stories are told. The evolution of storytelling reflects the evolution of society itself. One noticeable shift in storytelling is the move towards more complex narratives. In the past, stories tended to be linear and straightforward. However, modern novelists often employ multiple perspectives, non-linear timelines, and unreliable narrators to create a more intricate and layered narrative. This complexity reflects the increasingly complex nature of the world we live in. Another way in which storytelling has evolved is in its treatment of character. In earlier novels, characters were often one-dimensional and static. However, contemporary novelists strive to create more nuanced and dynamic characters. These characters are more relatable to readers, as they reflect the complexities and contradictions of real life. Furthermore, the way in which information is revealed in a story has evolved. In the past, authors often spoon-fed readers information, leaving little room for interpretation. Nowadays, novelists are more likely to trust readers to fill in the gaps themselves. This allows for a more interactive and engaging reading experience. Additionally, the role of the author in storytelling has shifted. In the past, authors were seen as all-knowing and omnipotent. However, contemporary authors often blur the line between themselves and their characters. This creates a more intimate and immersive reading experience, as readers are able to connect more deeply with the story.- The evolution of storytelling is a reflection of the evolution of society. As the world becomes more complex and interconnected, so too do the stories we tell. Novelists continue to push the boundaries of traditional storytelling, creating new and exciting ways to engage readers. The art of storytelling is a living, breathing thing, constantly changing and adapting to the world around it.
