Point of view as a narrative technique can be used in various ways, depending on the choice of perspective. Here’s a brief breakdown of how each option relates to point of view:
-
It gives details about a character from their own perspective. - This describes a first-person point of view, where the narrator is a character in the story and shares their thoughts and feelings directly.
-
It allows the writer to tell what every character is thinking. - This is indicative of a third-person omniscient point of view, where the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of all characters, providing a broader understanding of the story.
-
It tells the narrator’s connection to the story. - This relates to the narrator's perspective, whether they are a participant or an outside observer, affecting how the story is perceived.
-
It makes the reader part of the story. - This can relate to a second-person point of view, where the narrator addresses the reader directly, making them feel involved in the narrative.
Each of these approaches to point of view shapes the story's presentation and the reader's experience. If you need a specific answer to choose, "It gives details about a character from their own perspective" is closely tied to the concept of point of view as a narrative technique.
