...governs and gives significance to the succession of its events. "A plot is a way of connecting event and story. A story is made out of events, to the extent that plot makes events into a story." 14 To be temporal, an event must be more than a singular occurrence; it must be located in relation... | |

...provisory definition immediately shows the plot's connecting function between an event or events and the story. A story is made out of events to the extent that plot makes events into a story. The plot, therefore, places us at the crossing point of temporality and narrativity. (Ricoeur, 1980,... | |

...narrativization itself. As Ricoeur suggests, plot has "a connecting function between an event or events and the story. A story is made out of events to the extent that plot makes events into a story. The plot, therefore, places us at the crossing point of temporality and narrativity."47 In Gallant's... | |

...reference to Freud and his "masterplot" (chap. 4). 59. Brooks quotes Paul Ricoeur's definition of plot as "the intelligible whole that governs a succession of events in any story" (ibid., 13), a definition well in keeping with his own statements on plot and narrative. 60. Ibid.,... | |

...the narrative discourse. I find confirmation for such a view in Paul Ricoeur's definition of plot as "the intelligible whole that governs a succession of events in any story." Ricoeur continues, using the terms "events" and "story" rather than fabula and sjuzet: "This provisory... | |
