Discussion

For the short story called A Worn Path written by Eudora Welty (1941). Identify the point of view in the

1. narration of the story.

2. provide a specific example from the story to illustrate your argument.

3. Discuss how this perspective affects your reading and interpretation of the story.

4. Consider how a different type of narration might alter the effect of the story. Point of view refers to the perspective from which the story is narrated.

First person: In first-person, the story is told from the perspective of the narrator using first-person pronouns.

Second person: This is not commonly used. In second-person the narrator addresses the reader as "you", which gives the audience the feeling that they are apart of the story.

Third person: The story is told using third-person pronouns and the narrator is either godlike in the ability to see and know everything (Third-person omniscient) or not all knowing with knowledge limited to the perspective of only one character (Third-person limited).

Remember to provide evidence for your claims in the form of quoted passages from the story. Quotations, paraphrases, and summaries should be cited according to APA rules of style, including in-text and reference citations.
