Introduction to Character Analysis in English

This guide provides a comprehensive overview of how to write a character analysis in English. It explains the key components of a characterization and offers practical advice for structuring and writing an effective analysis.

The document begins by defining characterization as the task of analyzing a text to depict a character's personality as precisely as possible. It outlines two main methods of gathering information about a character:

1. Direct characterization: Where the reader is explicitly told about the character's personality by another character, the character themselves, or the narrator.

2. Indirect characterization: Where the reader must interpret the character's personality through their speeches, thoughts, effects on other characters, appearance, and actions.

Definition: Characterization is the process of analyzing a literary text to accurately depict a character's personality.

The guide then provides a clear structure for writing a characterization:

1. Introduction: Introduce the novel's title, author, character, the character's role, and connection to the task.

2. Main part: Analyze the character in detail using the P-E-A structure (Point, Evidence, Analysis).

3. Conclusion: Summarize the most notable claims and pinpoint the character's personality.

Example: An example introduction sentence is provided: "In the novel '[title]', written by [author], the character [name] is [role]. In order to characterise [name], he/she will now be analysed regarding [task]."
