Style (literature)

In literature, style refers to the codified gestures in which the author tells the story. Style is considered one of the fundamental components of fiction, along with plot, character, theme, and setting. Style in fiction includes the use of various literary techniques.

Components

Fiction is a form of narrative, one of the four rhetorical modes of discourse. Fiction-writing also has distinct forms of expression, or modes, each with its own purposes and conventions. Agent and author Evan Marshall identifies five fiction-writing modes: action, summary, dialogue, feelings/thoughts, and background (Marshall 1998, pp. 143–165). Author and writing-instructor Jessica Page Morrell lists six delivery modes for fiction-writing: action, exposition, description, dialogue, summary, and transition (Morrell 2006, p. 127). Author Peter Selgin refers to methods, including action, dialogue, thoughts, summary, scene, and description (Selgin 2007, p. 38). Currently, there is no consensus in the writing community on the number and composition of fiction-writing modes and their uses.
