PLOT

Some understandings according to experts, including: Stanton (1965:14), suggests that the
plot is a story that contains a sequence of events, but each incident is only connected causally,
one event is caused or causes another event to occur.
Kenny (1966:14) posits the plot as events that are presented in stories that are not simple in
nature, because the author structured the events based on causal links. Plots according to
Foster (1970:93) are story events that have an emphasis on causality relationships.

The plot one of the intrinsic elements of the story in both short stories and important novels.
The plot is a manifestation of the deeds, traits, and attitudes of the main character of the story.
In order to gain an understanding of the plot, the following is explained about the nature of
the plot, the rules of plot development, the staging of the plot, and the types of plot painting.
The plot features events that contain conflicts that are able to attract or even touch or tense
the reader. It encourages the reader to know about the next events. the plot is mysterious, to
fulfill it requires intellectual ability.

The plot of a fictional story, as Forster puts it, has a mysterious and intellectual nature. The
plot features events that contain conflicts that are able to attract or even touch or tense the
reader. It encourages the reader to know about the next events.

Staging Plot Development

There are three stagings of plot development in the story, namely (a) the early-middle-late
plot stage. Aristotle suggested that the plot should consist of the initial (early), middle
(midle), and late (late) stages. The initial stage of storytelling is called the introductory stage.
The introduction stage contains a number of important information related to various things
that will be told in the next stage, such as setting introductions and story character
introductions. The story begins with a specific event and ends with a specific event without
being bound by a time sequence.
Plot Stages The main function of the initial stage (opening) of a story is to provide
information and explanations as necessary, especially with regard to equipment and
characterization.

Middle Stage The middle stage of the story which can also be referred to as the stage of
infighting displays the opposition and completeness that has begun to be displayed in the
previous stage, Becomes increasing, increasingly restraining.

Final Stages A story or it can also be called an escape stage, features a certain scene as a
result of the climax. So, this section for example (among other things), contains how the story
ends, or celebrates when how a story ends.

Plots can be distinguished by the order of time, number and density. The time sequence in
question is the time of occurrence of events told in works of fiction. The order of time has to
do with the logic of the story. The time sequence of these events has to do with the stages of
plotting. Time sequences can be presented with both chronological and nonchronological
patterns. Chronological plots are also called straight, forward, progressive plots, while
nonchronological plots are also called counter-highlight, backward, flash-back, or regressive
plots. A plot is a series of events in a story that is arranged chronologically and has a cause-
and-effect relationship

Plots have several 3 types of plots in a story here are the plots that you should know,
including :

1. Forward Plot
The forward plot has a climax in the middle of the story. Events that run regularly and
sequentially according to the time sequence of events from beginning to end. It is also
called a croniesty plot, with stages being the beginning, the culmination, the climax,
the anticlimactic, the end

2. Plot Backwards
A plot that tells about the past and shows a climax at the beginning. Interestingly, the
plot retreats, as if there is a big secret to be revealed. Arranged not according to the
time sequence of events, from beginning to end. It is also referred to as a non-
chrognitive plot, with stages: end, anticlimactic, climax, beginning, beginning.

3. Mixed Plot
 combining forward and backward plots. The plot begins with a climax, then looks
again at the past, and continues until it is resolved. Tells many main characters, so that
the story of one has not yet finished returning to the beginning to tell another
character.

Events, Conflicts, and Climaxes

Events are divided into three depending on where they are viewed from.

Functional events are those that determine and or influence the development of a plot

The reference event is an event that does not directly affect and is related to the development
of the plot, but rather refers to other elements, for example related to the problem of
representation or the atmosphere that surrounds the inner character.

Linking events are events that serve to relate important events in the sequencing of the
presentation of a story.

Conflict, which in fact is a relatively important event, is essential in the development of the
plot. Conflict revolves around the angst of something unpleasant that occurs and or is
naturalized by the characters of the story. When the orientation stage has been carried out, it
will be continued to the part of the initial stage of the conflict. Where at this stage later it will
be raised how the conflict occurs and the causes of the conflict.

The climax is when the conflict has reached the highest level of intensity, and when (it) is
something that cannot be avoided. The advanced stage of the next stage of conflict
recognition is the climax or culmination of a conflict in the story or story. Arguably at this
stage the peak of the conflict that readers have been most looking forward to.
