Todorov: state of equilibrium


Tzvetan Todorov focused on the narrative of a text, going on too in-depth analysis of the area, until he simplified the idea of the narrative theory, developing a complex interpretation of film texts. These interpretations were know as Equilibrium and Disequilibrium. The fictional piece starts with Equilibrium, which highlights everything that’s there in equal balance, noting that equality is important. The narrative then suffers from some form of disruption, which is known as the disequilibrium, which is a change of path and variation from the ‘balance’ previously found. Therefore, Todorov noticed the eruption of a clear narrative, with how this progressed downwards.
