----敘事者對每一件事都能了然，他能隨意進(jìn)入任何人物的內(nèi)心深處，并直接告訴讀者，某一小說人物正在想些什么。通常是以第三人稱法敘事，其優(yōu)點(diǎn)是具有高度彈性，缺點(diǎn)是在訓(xùn)練不足的作家手中，可能會(huì)使作品傾向于松散而凌亂。2021/5/916有限制的敘事觀點(diǎn)：

----其敘述者所知有限，他可能是小說中的人物，以第一人稱（我）的方式去敘事，也可能置身于小說之外，以第三人稱敘事。2021/5/917戲劇式觀點(diǎn)

----前兩者或以小說外的導(dǎo)演口吻來布局，或以劇中人的『我』來道出親身經(jīng)歷，都是有一個(gè)操縱者或攝影者，但戲劇式觀點(diǎn)是根本沒有明顯的觀看者，完全借著對話、行動(dòng)，讓小說中的人物自己演出，是極為客觀的一種敘述法。
