_________________________________________________
ننتبه شوي لهذا المثال
If I tell you the story of Napoleon‟s invasion of Egypt in the third person: He sailed to Alexandria with 30 000 soldiers and then he marched on Cairo, etc.” That would be a narration (diagesis).
I am telling you the story.
يعتبر (diagesis)
_ third person
_ I am telling you the story

But if I tell you the story in the first person, as if I am Napoleon: “I sailed to Alexandria with 30 000 soldiers, and then I marched on Cairo, etc.” That would be an imitation (mimesis).
I am showing you the story.
يعتبر (mimesis)
_ first person
_ I am showing you the story.
_____________________________________________
usually
Drama with characters = mimesis
stories in the third person = diegesis
