Batman narrative structure_02
Vladimir Propp analyzed 400 Russian folk tales and identified character roles and narrative functions that recurred across the stories. He identified 8 character roles - hero, villain, donor, dispatcher, false hero, helper, princess, and the princess's father. He also identified 31 narrative functions that described the sequence of events in the tales, such as the hero leaving home, receiving a difficult task, accomplishing the task, and being rewarded. The Dark Knight Rises characters can be mapped to Propp's roles, with Batman as the hero, Bane as the villain, Lucius Fox as the donor, Commissioner Gordon as the dispatcher, Miranda Tate as the false hero, Selina Kyle and Alfred as helpers, and Sel
Character and Narrative theories
This document summarizes several character and narrative theories:
1) Goffman's character theory identifies four main character types - the protagonist, deuteragonist, bit player, and fool.
2) Propp's character theory says stories contain recurring character archetypes - the villain, dispatcher, donor, helper(s), false hero, hero, and princess/heroine.
3) In Propp's theory, stories follow a struggle scene where the hero battles the villain, and a recognition scene where the hero is recognized and the false hero unmasked.
4) Todorov's narrative theory outlines a 5-stage structure - equilibrium, disruption, recognition of disruption, attempt to repair
Character theory
Erving Goffman and Vladimir Propp developed theories about common character types that appear in narratives. Goffman identified four main character types: the protagonist, deuteragonist, bit player, and fool. Propp said stories typically include a hero, villain, dispatcher, donor, helper(s), false hero, and princess/heroine. Tzvetan Todorov and Claude Levi-Strauss developed structural theories of narrative. Todorov described a typical narrative structure as involving an initial equilibrium, a disruption, recognition of the disruption, an attempt to repair the damage, and a new equilibrium. Levi-Strauss said all narratives can be reduced to binary opposites such as good vs evil
The north korean secret
This summary is based on the provided document:
The document tells a story about rising tensions between North Korea and South Korea, as North Korea has been accused of sinking a South Korean ship, though Pyongyang denies the allegations. A member of the South Korean resistance is trying to hide incriminating documents from a North Korean sergeant, who has captured and destroyed a South Korean android spy to confiscate her documents. The sergeant is taking documents to prevent the world from seeing proof that could spark a war between the two Koreas. The story also involves a double agent working for both Koreas attempting to send explosive evidence in a package while guarded by a CIA bodyguard, and a terrorist carrying explosives and a fake passport.
Propp’s theory in regards to doom(2005)
Propp's character theory outlines eight character types that often appear in stories. The document provides an example story that features a space marine named Reaper as the hero who must defeat a monster. Reaper receives help from his sister, who provides key information, acting as the donor character. The U.S. government sends the marines, including Reaper and the false hero Sarge, on their quest as the dispatcher. In the end, Reaper is able to defeat the monster and end the threat.

This document discusses representations in horror films. It outlines common character archetypes like the hero, villain, victim, and helper. It describes traits of these characters like gender, appearance, and role in the story. It also discusses how class, age, gender, and ethnicity are typically portrayed. Narrative and audience theories that apply to the genre are explained, such as how horror films follow patterns defined by Todorov and Propp and how they entertain audiences seeking escape.
Theory
Vladimir Propp analyzed Russian folk tales and identified 31 plot elements that recurred across stories. He also noted 8 common character types used to advance the narrative, including the hero, villain, donor, and princess. However, critics argue that Propp ignores differences in character, tone, and mood between tales. Additionally, his focus on the princess as a reward is less applicable to horror genres. Claude Levi-Strauss believed that all narratives are driven by conflicts between binary opposites such as good vs. evil. Finally, Tvetzan Todorov's theory is that stories typically follow a pattern of equilibrium, disruption, and a return to equilibrium or a new equilibrium.

Film narratives in thrillers
This document discusses how the narrative of the film "The Dark Knight Rises" follows some famous narrative theories. It analyzes how the film's plot follows Todorov's theory of narrative stages, Propp's theory of character archetypes, and Levi-Strauss's theory of binary oppositions.

Narrative theory 2
Narratives follow common patterns of equilibrium being disrupted by an event, the protagonist attempting to resolve the issue and restore equilibrium. Various theorists like Barthes, Levi-Strauss, and Propp analyzed narratives and identified common codes, themes of opposition and conflict, and recurring narrative functions that move the plot forward.
Presentation2
Media texts provide structure and organization that helps make sense of experiences, while narratives connect events through a beginning, middle, and end. When analyzing narratives, conventions like genre, character, time, and form are considered to interpret meaning. Narratives can be "unraveled" through codes like action/enigma, symbols, cultural references, and narrative structures to find different interpretations. Successful stories involve change to characters' lives and resolution to create a new equilibrium.
Theorist research
This document summarizes several theorists' concepts related to narrative structure and analysis:
- Roland Barthes identified 5 codes that provide meaning in narratives: the semantic, hermeneutic, cultural, symbolic, and proairetic codes.
- Tzvetan Todorov believed there are 5 stages to narrative structure: equilibrium, disruption, recognition of disorder, attempt to repair damage, and return to a new equilibrium.
- Vladimir Propp analyzed Russian folktales and identified 8 common character types and 31 potential "narrative functions" that move the plot forward.
- Claude Levi-Strauss viewed the individual narrative as an imaginary resolution to real-life contradictions.
Vladimir Propp
Vladimir Propp was a Russian scholar who analyzed Russian folk tales and identified common narrative structures. He identified 31 narrative units that comprised the typical structure of many Russian folk tales. These units included character archetypes like the hero, villain, dispatcher, donor, and helper. Propp broke down how these characters interacted and progressed the story. For example, the villain acts against the hero while the dispatcher sends the hero on a quest and the donor provides assistance. Propp's theory provides a framework for understanding recurring patterns in folk tales and has been applied to other stories like the Harry Potter series.
Narrative theory
The document discusses different models of narrative structure that can be applied to media texts, including Propp's 31 narrative functions model, Todorov's 5-stage model of narrative, and Roland Barthes' 5 codes of narrative. Propp believed narratives follow a sequence of 31 possible functions or plot points, such as one family member leaving home or a villain deceiving the victim. Todorov saw narratives as moving from an initial equilibrium, through disruption, an attempt to rectify it, to a new equilibrium. Barthes identified codes like hermeneutic (mystery), proairetic (action), and semantic (meaning).
31 functions of Narrative structure
Vladimir Propp was a Russian formalist scholar born in 1895 who studied folklore and fairy tales. He is known for his analysis of the common structural elements found across many Russian folktales, which he detailed in his 1928 work Morphology of the Folktale. This work influenced later scholars despite initial lack of attention in the West. Propp had a long career as a university faculty member studying folklore from the 1930s until his death in 1970. He broke fairy tales down into their smallest narrative units to identify common patterns and character types found across stories.
Batman narrative structure_02
Vladimir Propp analyzed over 400 Russian folk tales and identified character types and narrative functions that commonly occurred across the tales. He identified 8 character roles - hero, villain, donor, dispatcher, false hero, helper, princess, and the princess's father. He also identified 31 narrative functions that describe the typical sequence of events in the tales, such as the disruption of order by the villain, the hero receiving a call to action and leaving home, struggles between the hero and villain, and final recognition and reward of the hero. The document provides an example of how Propp's character roles and narrative functions apply in the analysis of the plot of the film The Dark Knight Rises.
Vladimir propp theory
Vladimir Propp identified 7 character archetypes that commonly appear in folktales:
1. The hero who responds to challenges from the villain and receives help from the donor and magical helper.
2. The villain who struggles against the hero.
3. The donor who prepares or gives objects to the hero.
4. The magical helper who aids the hero.
5. The princess who the hero marries.
6. The false hero who is perceived as good but emerges as evil.
7. The dispatcher who makes the problem known and sends the hero off.

Vladimir Propp was a Russian scholar born in 1895 who believed that all stories contain 7 main character types and follow a structure of 31 narrative functions. He theorized that every story can be broken down into these components, including characters like the hero, villain, donor, and magical helper who each have defined roles that advance the plot. Propp studied how different narratives manipulate these character types and functions to create various story outcomes.
Theories
Vladimir Propp and Tzvetan Todorov developed theories about common character types and narrative structures in stories. Propp identified 7 common character types that often appear, such as the hero, villain, and helper. Todorov proposed that narratives typically follow 5 stages: an initial equilibrium, a disruption, recognition of the disruption, an attempt to repair it, and a new equilibrium. The document provides examples of how both Propp and Todorov's theories can be applied to the Harry Potter story, identifying the characters that fit each type and the stages the narrative progresses through.

Approaches to narrative theory
The document discusses various approaches to analyzing narratives. It describes Aristotle's view that narratives have a beginning, middle, and end. It also outlines Vladimir Propp's analysis identifying 31 possible narrative functions that tend to appear in consistent order. Additionally, it summarizes Joseph Campbell's theory of the "monomyth" or hero's journey narrative structure involving stages like the call to adventure and return from the quest.

Theory Research
Vladimir Propp identified 31 narrative functions that are commonly found across fairy tales and other narratives. These functions involve character types like the hero, villain, donor, and princess. Propp also analyzed the typical sequence of events, such as the hero leaving home, receiving help, engaging in combat with the villain, and being rewarded at the end. His work established that certain character types and plot structures tend to recur across different stories.
Narrative theorists
Vladimir Propp studied Russian folk tales and identified a set of 31 narrative functions - character types and actions - that commonly recur across these stories. Some of the main character types he identified include the villain, hero, donor, and princess. Propp also found that while different tales may omit some functions, the functions always appear in the same sequence. His work was influential for structuralist ideas that stories have an underlying structure and can be created by arranging abstract plot elements.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Vladimir propp 2
- 1. Vladimir Propp By Harriet Kersey
- 2. Who is he… Vladimir Propp analysed Russian folk tales and found the same events would happen in every story. Propp then looked at the narrative sequences in folk tales and stories. He broke down the tales into the smallest possible units, which he called narratemes or narrative functions. A narrateme is an event that drives the narrative forward, possibly taking it in a different direction. Not all of these functions appear in every story, but they always appear in this order.
- 3. He said that there were 31 narrative functions… 1 A member of a family leaves home (the hero is introduced as a unique person within the tribe, whose needs may not be met by remaining) 2 An interdiction (a command NOT to do something e.g.'don't go there', 'go to this place'), is addressed to the hero; 3 The hero ignores the interdiction 4 The villain appears and (either villain tries to find the children/jewels etc; or intended victim encounters the villain); 5 The villain gains information about the victim; 6 The villain attempts to deceive the victim to take possession of victim or victim's belongings (trickery; villain disguised, tries to win confidence of victim);
- 4. 7 The victim is fooled by the villain, unwittingly helps the enemy; 8 Villain causes harm/injury to family/tribe member (by abduction, theft of magical agent, spoiling crops, plunders in other forms, causes a disappearance, expels someone, casts spell on someone, substitutes child etc, commits murder, imprisons/detains someone, threatens forced marriage, provides nightly torments); Alternatively, a member of family lacks something or desires something (magical potion etc); 9 Misfortune or lack is made known, (hero is dispatched, hears call for help etc/ alternative is that victimised hero is sent away, freed from imprisonment); 10 Seeker agrees to, or decides upon counter-action; 11 Hero leaves home; 12 Hero is tested, interrogated, attacked etc, preparing the way for his/her receiving magical agent or helper (donor); 13 Hero reacts to actions of future donor (withstands/fails the test, frees captive, reconciles disputants, performs service, uses adversary's powers against them)
- 5. 14 Hero acquires use of a magical agent (it's directly transferred, located, purchased, prepared, spontaneously appears, is eaten/drunk, or offered by other characters); 15 Hero is transferred, delivered or led to whereabouts of an object of the search; 16 Hero and villain join in direct combat; 17 Hero is branded (wounded/marked, receives ring or scarf); 18 Villain is defeated (killed in combat, defeated in contest, killed while asleep, banished); 19 Initial misfortune or lack is resolved (object of search distributed, spell broken, slain person revived, captive freed); 20 Hero returns; 21 Hero is pursued (pursuer tries to kill, eat, undermine the hero); 22 Hero is rescued from pursuit (obstacles delay pursuer, hero hides or is hidden, hero transforms unrecognisably, hero saved from attempt on his/her life);
- 6. 23 Hero unrecognised, arrives home or in another country; 24 False hero presents unfounded claims; 25 Difficult task proposed to the hero (trial by ordeal, riddles, test of strength/endurance, other tasks); 26 Task is resolved; 27 Hero is recognised (by mark, brand, or thing given to him/her); 28 False hero or villain is exposed; 29 Hero is given a new appearance (is made whole, handsome, new garments etc); 30 Villain is punished; 31 Hero marries and ascends the throne (is rewarded/promoted).
- 7. He also gave names to the characters in it the villain the donor the helper the Princess the dispatcher, the hero the false hero (or antihero or usurper), who claims to be the hero
- 8. The End…
