What is a narrative structure? Best answer gets medal.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Narrative structure is about two things: the content of a story and the form used to tell the story. Two common ways to describe these two parts of narrative structure are story and plot. Story refers to the raw materials of dramatic action as they might be described in chronological order.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Narrative structure consists of the traditional parts of a story and the order in which the reader encounters them; these provide a framework for the unfolding of the story. Often represented visually as a triangle, these parts consist of exposition or beginning, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution or denouement. Narrative structure can take a variety of forms, often depending on the genre of the story. For example, a writer who wishes to build tension may begin with a dramatic flashback before visiting the initial events of a story. Further, with the development of digital narrative, a writer may provide links to other parts of a story so that the reader determines the order of events and the revelation of details.
