Understand the concept of a character study
Understand how a character analysis may help analyze a character's motives and actions
Create a character study
Task: Compose a character study on a character from a book, television show, graphic novel, or any media that you like. Identify one character from your selection choice and complete an in-depth character study on that one character. Keep reading to learn more about creating a character study.
Here are some Thinking Points to to get you started.
A CHARACTER STUDY is an analysis or portrayal in literature of the traits of character of an individual in a reading selection.
A character may or may not be easy to understand. A character analysis can help you analyze his or her motives, beliefs, morality, etc.
Generally speaking, characters are generally ‘round’ or ‘flat.’
A round character is a major character in a work of fiction who encounters conflict and is changed by it. Round characters tend to be more fully developed and described than flat, or static, characters. If you think of the characters you most love in fiction, they probably seem as real to you as people you know in real life. This is a good sign that they are round characters.
A flat character is a minor character in a work of fiction who does not undergo substantial change or growth in the course of a story. Also referred to as "two-dimensional characters" or "static characters," flat characters play a supporting role to the main character, who as a rule should be round.
Though we don't generally strive to write flat characters, they are often necessary in a story, along with round characters. Take, for example, Mr. Collins in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. A flat character, he serves a vital role in the story of how Elizabeth and Darcy get together, and he provides comedy, but his character stays essentially unchanged. (In fact, that’s part of what makes him funny.)
