- Point of view
In the study of literary texts, the vantage point from which a story is told: for example, in the first-person point of view, the story is told by one of the characters, while in the third-person point of view, the story is told by someone outside the story. More broadly, point of view can refer to any position or perspective conveyed or represented by an author, narrator, speaker, or character.

Analyze how differences in point of view between characters and audience (e.g., created through the use of dramatic irony) create such effects as suspense or humor.
[RL.11-12.6] -
Analyze a case in which grasping point of view requires distinguishing what is directly stated in a text from what is really meant (e.g., satire, sarcasm, irony, understatement, notable omission).
