Question

30 Points. In comparing "Minerva and Arachne" and "Niobe," can you establish a common theme running throughout both texts? How do you think this theme might change if the stories were written in first-person point of view?

Write a journal entry explaining the theme of both "Minerva and Arachne" and "Nirobe." Then, consider how the theme might change if the tales were written using a first-person point of view. Use examples and evidence from both texts to support your analysis.

Answer 1

Both third person and first person narrative modes have their restrictions. Third person presents events from a point of view outside the story; first person shows them from a single character's viewpoint, one who often has incomplete information. Changing third person to first person will create further limitations for a novel's viewpoint and voice. Some writers prefer those limitations, but some bridle at them.Explanation:your welcome
