= = = **// Understanding Characterization. //** = = **[|Understanding Characterization Doc]** = = **Characterization** is the act of creating and developing a character. A writer can use direct characterization when stating or describing a character’s traits. Indirect characterization is when an author shows a character’s personality through his or her actions, thoughts, feelings, and words, or through another character’s observations and reactions. Indirect characterization relies on the reader to put together the clues in order to figure out the character’s personality. It is important to remember that characterization relies upon the character’s traits and not upon his or her physical appearance. = Complete the chart below with each character’s physical description, the traits he demonstrates at  the beginning of the novel, and changes (if any) the character exhibits as he moves through the story.
