CHARACTER TYPES

1. Looking at the different types of characters (see definitions on right), which would you consider for the following roles:

• Protagonist: • Antagonist: • Mentor:• Foil: • Confidante:

 

2. Which events in the novel so far have been catalysts for change in Tris?3. Which characters would you consider catalysts for Tris? Why?  

LOOKING AHEAD: Other minor character roles include symbolic characters, those who represent one of the themes from the novel. As you continue reading, make note of any characters who may be symbolic of one of the themes.

One area authors concentrate on are whether the character changes his or her personality, beliefs, looks, and behavior over the course of the story. If so, these are called dynamic characters. If not, they are more static characters. 

The other area is the complexity of the character’s personality: do they show a range of emotions? Are they conflicted on decisions? Do they sometimes contradict themselves? If so, they are more rounded characters. If they seem to only have one or two personality traits, they are considered flat characters. 

1. Which characters are more dynamic in the story thus far? Why?2. Which characters are portrayed more rounded so far? Why?

CHARACTER PORTRAYALSCharacters are not only classified in certain roles, but they are portrayed in differently Types of CharactersProtagonist: the central person in the story who is faced with conflict that must be resolved (the main character).Antagonist: a character (or situation) that opposes or contends with the protagonist.Mentor: serves as the protagonist’s conscience; this character voices the lesson(s) to be learned.Foil: a character whose personality traits conflict with the protagonist’s, giving the reader a contrast that helps you get to know the protagonist better.Confidante: a character in which the protagonist confides, allowing the reader to learn more about the protagonist.Catalyst: a character or event that instigates a change in other characters or in the plot of the story.Types of Character PortrayalsCHANGE or STAY THE SAME?Dynamic characters: are characters who change over time, usually as a result of facing a major crisis or resolving a conflict.Static characters: are those whose personalities, attitudes, and looks do not evolve over time.• • •COMPLEX or ONE-DIMENSIONAL?Round characters: are characters who have a complex personality; they are usually conflicted and/or contradictory. Flat characters: are those who only have one personality trait or characteristic; they are relatively uncomplicated.

Do you think the way Four and Eric were ranked in their training class has anything to do with their strained relationship? Why or why not? 

Chapter 191. What is the reporter implying with the statement “...perhaps the answer lies not in a morally bereft man, but in the corrupted ideals of an entire faction. Perhaps the answer is that we have entrusted our city to a group of proselytizing tyrants who do not know how to lead us out of poverty and into prosperity”? (243-244)2. Tris stereotypes all the Erudite based on what she has heard from her father about Jeanine and the few reports and articles that have been released, mainly coming from Jeanine. Is this fair of Tris? Why/why not?3. What impression would outsiders get of Dauntless if they were to only base their assumptions on what Eric says and does?4.

 ONOMATOPOEIARead the following passage from Chapter 34, pages 433-434. CIRCLE all the examples of onomatopoeia. Then answer the questions below. “Jeanine braces herself against the desk, spluttering and gasping. She rubs her throat, which is bright red with Tobias’s fingerprints. No matter how mechanical she seems, she’s still human; there are tears in her eyes as she takes a box from her desk drawer and opens it, revealing a needle and syringe. Still breathing heavily, she carries it toward Tobias. Tobias grits his teeth and elbows one of the guards in the face. The guard slams the heel of his gun into the side of Tobias’s head, and Jeanine sticks the needle into Tobias’s neck. He goes limp. A sound escapes my mouth, not a sob or a scream, but a croaking, scraping moan that sounds detached, like it is coming from someone else.” (Chapter 34, p. 433-434) 1. How does the use of onomatopoeia enhance the passage? 2. How do the words contribute to the overall mood of the passage? What feelings do they convey?  IT MAKES ME WONDER…“The pain has been so constant for the past few minutes that I have gotten used to it, like a person gets used to a siren’s wail if it remains consistent.” (chapter 34, page 431) Some words or phrases the author uses triggers additional questions in the reader’s mind. For example, the words “a siren’s wail” may cause the reader to wonder what kind of siren she is referring to. It is questionable because the narrator has never mentioned a siren, or a police or emergency force (besides Dauntless). Perhaps it is a city-wide siren. Which then prompts further questions, like: Who controls the sirens for the city? What are they used for? Why is Tris familiar with a constant siren wail? What are some phrases/words in the book that make YOU wonder or prompts further questions? Are there any words the author has used that you question? Write your thoughts on a separate sheet of paper.

END OF NOVEL QUESTIONS1. Survival of the Fittest OR Knowing the Right People? How has Tris relied on others for her own survival? How has she relied on herself? Cite examples from the novel to support your answer.  2. POINT OF VIEW: How would the story differ if it was narrated from Four’s point of view? Consider where the story would begin, which events would be included, which new events may be added, and how it might end. 3. THEMATIC CONNECTIONS: Determine two or more themes or central ideas from the novel; next, analyze their development over the course of the text, including how they interact and build on one another to produce a complex account. 4. PARALLEL PLOTS: Determine two main conflicts in the novel. How do the events for each conflict interact with one another and build suspense?
