Literary dissection is a way that you can break a piece of literature down into its components in order to gain a better understanding of how those parts make up the whole work.

Take a work of fiction that you have read and dissect it in a 1-2 page Word document:

• What is the story’s central conflict?
• Summarize the story’s plot.
• Describe the story’s climax.
• How is the climax resolved and do you think it is an effective resolution?
• What is the central theme of the story?
• In what ways do the conflicts in the story contribute to the theme?Literary dissection is a way that you can break a piece of literature down into its components in order to gain a better understanding of how those parts make up the whole work.
