Close and distant narrative styles are all a third-person characterization.

Distant third-person characterization is describing the internal state of the character using the narrator's objective voice. It is keeping the POV character at an increased narrative distance from the reader, with the third-person narrator (the author, or the unnamed godlike narrator) working as the middleman.

Close third-person characterization is portraying the internal state of the character using the character's subjective voice. It is pulling the reader as close to the POV character as possible, in an attempt to eliminate narrative distance, by making the narrative appear to come directly from within the character himself.

In distant narrative style, the narrator and character is distinctive while in close narrative style, the narrator and character melds into one.

Answer from: mitetwojr

Narrative distance refers to the difference between the character's points of view and the reader's point of view. Close and Distant narrative styles are both third-person styles of writing. Distant Narrating would be when the narrator is outside of the events of the story. A close narrator is one that would take part in the events of a story. I think it would be appropriate to use Distant narrating when you just need to get a quick overview of the story. This would be effective in this way because it would be easier to tell the whole story. It would be appropriate to use Close narrating when you want to get closer to the emotions of the characters. You couldn't effectively get close to the character's emotions from a distance. This would b effective because you would get insight into the emotions and thoughts of the narrator taking part in these events.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
