Post #3 Chronology

Chronology is basically the order in which events occur based on the time when they occurred. Authors tell stories in varying forms of chronological order to emphasize certain events over others. An example of chronology from the summer reading would be how "We" is told in chronological order of events so the reader can see the transformation of D-503 as a character better than if the events were not told in chronological order. An example of a movie that is told not in chronological order is "Memento". It is not told in chronological order to allow the viewer to experience what the character experiences with the inability to form short term memories.

  2. Is your photo broken? I like how you gave an example for something that is not in chronological order, it helps better define Chronology.

    Thanks Jackson

  3. I also like how you gave an example of what chronology is and also an example of something that is not in chronological order. I can not see your picture but another example you could do is a timeline of the order things happen in a book.
