Asked by anonymous

Are foreshadowing and exposition kind of the same thing?
Answered by Ms. Sue
Not really.

Foreshadowing is the author's hint that something is going to happen later on. Exposition occurs when characters discuss what happened earlier.

No, foreshadowing is the use of hints and clues to show what is going to happen in a story; exposition is the introductory material which gives the setting, creates the tone, presents the characters, and presents other facts necessary to understanding the story.
