NARRATIVE PLOT OF THE APOCALYPSE

  • Young Jang Department of Old and New Testament Stellenbosch University

Abstract

Since Aristotle, the plot of a narrative has been defined by two characteristics – causality and effects. The fivefold narrative-scheme (namely, constituents of a plot) proposed by Van Dijk, may be very well applicable to the Apocalypse, reflecting the two essential factors of its plot. The narrative plot consists of five phases – “introduction,” “setting,” “complication,” “resolution” and “moral/coda.”
