I forgot to include the following statements. I really hope you can have a look at them, too. Thank you very much in advance.
1)The third-person narrator is a narrator who stands outside the story and uses the third person voice to refer to the characters.
2) A third-person narrator can tell the story as an omniscient narrator with an unlimited point of view or from the point of view of one of the characters.
3) The omniscient third-person narrator can be intrusive (obtrusive) when he addresses the reader directly by making personal remarks on the society of the time, on some of the characters.
4) The narrator is unobtrusive when he shows what happens but does not interfere with (in?) the story.
1 - "third-person" in both places (hyphen needed)
2 - OK
3 - delete (obtrusive)
4 - in
Certainly! Here's an explanation of each statement you provided:
1) The first statement describes a third-person narrator. A third-person narrator is someone who is not a character in the story, but rather stands outside of it. The narrator uses the third-person voice, meaning they refer to the characters by their names or pronouns (he, she, they) instead of the first-person voice (I, me). This perspective allows the narrator to provide an objective viewpoint of the events in the story.
2) The second statement discusses how a third-person narrator can tell the story in two different ways. Firstly, the narrator can be an omniscient narrator, meaning they have unlimited knowledge of the story's events, characters' thoughts, and feelings. This perspective gives the narrator the ability to provide insights beyond what any single character may know. Alternatively, the third-person narrator can also choose to present the story from the point of view of one specific character. This limited perspective restricts the reader's knowledge to what that character experiences and knows.
3) The third statement describes the behavior of an omniscient third-person narrator. In some cases, this type of narrator can be intrusive or obtrusive. This means that the narrator may directly address the reader, sometimes by making personal remarks or comments about the society of the time, or even about certain characters. This can be seen as the narrator inserting their own opinions or commentary into the story.
4) The fourth statement contrasts with the previous one, explaining that a narrator can also be unobtrusive. An unobtrusive narrator is one who remains in the background and simply shows what happens in the story without interfering or offering personal comments. This type of narrator plays more of an observational role, allowing the reader to form their own interpretations and opinions without being influenced by the narrator's voice.
I hope this helps clarify the statements!
