Narrative Technique
Once you have chosen the incident, the involvement of readers in the story is important. You should try and make the reader a part of the story by carrying him/her along. You can even recreate an incident or the circumstances surrounding an incident and tell the story in another interesting way. You should also be able to think about some generalisations in human experiences or endeavour that the story supports so that the reader can find himself in this generalisation.
For example, the general belief that hard work is profitable while laziness tends to poverty. The events in the story must be carefully selected and explained. In narratives, if the first person narrative technique is used i.e ‘I’, it draws the reader closer to share in an intimate discussion. Narration is a technique that you have to develop as a writer and you should make your narration lively. You should also vary your style so that you will not bore your reader. Avoid unnecessary mannerism in speech and writing. For example, there is an expression which many university graduates use now which is uncalled for in most cases.
It is the expression- ‘as in’. In most of the cases I have heard the expression used, it has been uncalled for. This kind of mannerism can make your write up boring. The third person singular or plural –i.e ‘he’ ‘she’ or ‘they’ can also be used in narratives. Even though it puts a distance between the narrator and the narrative it nevertheless enables the reader to identify minimally or maximally with the narrative. Below is another example of a narrative passage:
Richard laughed at the jokes. He tried too not to drift throughout the conversations, not to show how awkward he felt. He preferred talking to the women, although he had learned not to spend too long with a particular woman or Susan would throw a glass at the wall when they got home He was baffled the first time it happened. He had spent a short time talking to Clovis Bacroft about her brother’s life as a District Commissioner in Enugu years ago and afterwards, Susan was silent during the drive back in her chauffeur- driven car. (from Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie p56)
In this narrative, the third person singular is used. The names of some individuals are also mentioned. You will notice that from this short paragraph, you have been informed about Susan’s temperament. As a writer, you can introduce your characters in different ways to get your reader acquainted them and the situations around them. Building up the essay paragraph by paragraph will form a unified whole and an interesting piece.
CONCLUSION
In this article, we have been able to go through how essays are written in general and in particular we have highlighted some of the principles of narrative essays. We have tried not to allow you to get used to full sample essays because most students then pattern their essays after such essays thinking it is the only model. We want you to be able to think on your own and be creative. Remember that we said you should be original. That is why in this unit and the remaining three units, we shall try to give samples of sections of the different kinds of essays.
In this article you learnt that:
- a narrative essay is one of the many different kinds of essay writings that students engage in while in school.
- one of the features of essays is originality.
- you are expected to develop the habit of thinking for yourself so that you can be original in thought and expression
- the plot has to do with the series of incidents forming the plan of action of a story, play or poem.
- the setting has to do with reference to specific places that are mentioned in the narrative.
- the characters must have specified names and functions.
- in narratives, the first person narrative technique can be used i.e ‘I’ and this draws the reader closer to share in an intimate discussion
- you should think about some generalisations in human experiences or endeavour that the story supports so that the reader can find himself in this generalisation
- usually, a narrative ends by presenting a moral lesson which every reader or listener can learn from.
