Point of View ~ The narrator's position in relation to the story being told; the position from which something or some one is observed.
Example: Beowulf's point of view is Third-person omniscient
Point of view is the set of methods that an author uses to convey the plot to the audience/reader. The point of view includes not only who tells the story, but also how the story is described or expressed.
Personification ~ The attribution of a person, nature, or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form
Example: Oreo: Milk’s favorite cookie. (slogan for Oreo cookies)
Personification is used in all types of literature, but it commonly found in poetry. This technique makes it possible to describe something that was otherwise ineffable. Personification makes it easier to imagine a particular thing or object because it creates a picture in the mind. It enables the reader to relate to the subject.
These might have been a little too easy. Choose lit terms that you don't already know.
