Authors use the specific techniques of imagery and dialogue to establish the cultural setting of a story.
-
Imagery involves descriptive language that evokes sensory experiences, helping readers visualize the environment, customs, and lifestyles of the characters within a particular culture.
-
Dialogue reflects the language, slang, and mannerisms of the characters, providing insight into their cultural background and social context.
These techniques work together to create a vivid and authentic portrayal of the story's setting.
