Characterization The explicit presentation by the author of
the character through direct description, either in an introductory block or, more commonly, woven throughout the work and illustrated by action (external characterization).

Characterization The presentation of a character in action,
with little or no explicit comment by the author, with the expectation that the reader can deduce the attributes of the character from his/her actions (external characterization).

Review: Character:
If the theme is true for you, write it at the top of a page in your Writer’s Notebook.
If it is not, revise it until it is, and then write it at the top of your page.
Develop your theme by creating a conflict that captures your theme.
Then, develop a character that would experience the
conflict.
Figurative language - language not intended to be taken literally but layered with meaning through the use of imagery, metaphors, and other literary devices.
The author’s background is important in allowing students to read more deeply. The time frame of the author’s life, as well as the time frame of the setting can have a significant impact on a story and on the language the author uses.
