Szövegtörténet

Szövegtörténet is a Hungarian term that translates to "text story" or "narrative text." It refers to a written piece that tells a story, conveying events, characters, and a plot through language. This encompasses a broad range of literary forms, from short stories and novels to epic poems and even historical accounts. The core element of a szövegtörténet is its reliance on words to construct a world and unfold a sequence of happenings for the reader.

The emphasis in a szövegtörténet is on the narrative structure and the development of its components. This includes the establishment of a setting, the introduction of characters with their motivations and actions, and the progression of a plot that typically involves conflict and resolution. The author uses descriptive language, dialogue, and internal monologue to engage the reader and create a specific mood or atmosphere.

Szövegtörténet can be fictional or non-fictional. While fiction allows for complete imaginative freedom, non-fictional texts like biographies or historical narratives also aim to tell a coherent story, albeit one based on factual events. Regardless of its origin, the essence of a szövegtörténet lies in its ability to communicate a narrative through the written word, offering a window into different experiences, perspectives, and worlds.
