Plot is the sequence of events in a literary work. In most novels, dramas, short stories, and narrative poems, the plot involves both characters and a central conflict. The plot usually begins with an exposition that introduces the setting, the characters, and the basic situation. This is followed by the inciting action, which introduces the central conflict. The conflict then increases during the development until it reaches a high point of interest or suspense, called the climax. All the events leading up to the climax make up the rising action. The climax is followed by the falling action, which leads to the resolution, or end, of the central conflict. Any events that occur after the resolution make up the denouement.

In literature, the narration of story events with emphasis on causation. According to the novelist E.M. Forster, "the king died and then the queen died" is a story--a mere succession of events; but "the king died and then the queen died of grief" is a plot, because of the inclusion of a causal relationship between story events. Plot also involves the interplay between the story events themselves and the narrative discourse by which they are presented . These two may be equivalent, or they may differ with respect to the order in which events are narrated, the duration of their presentation, and the frequency of their narration. Literary narratives are also complicated by the use of narrators of various kinds, who may be characters in the story, mere witnesses to the events, or godlike "omniscient" voices whose understanding is boundless. Myths tend, far less than literary works, to deploy plot in these ways. Compare, e.g., the straightforward and "na•ve" recounting of the adventures of Heracles with the convoluted narrative of Odysseus' wanderings in Homer's epic poem. The latter is a triumphant example of literary plot, while the former exemplifies a story, in Forster's sense.

The main events in a story.

The sequence of events or happenings in a literary work. Plots may be simple or complex, loosely constructed or close-knit. But every plot is made up a series of incidents that are related to one another.

Ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle said, ‘The plot is the imitation of the action - for by plot I here mean the arrangement of the incidents.’ Aristotle thought that a play would be about one thing "the action" and that all the events in the storyline of a play, would lead towards the portrayal of this action. We could say that the central question of Faustus is: ‘Will Faustus see his folly and repent of his contract with Lucifer?’ All the different scenes of the play would then lead towards asking and answering this question.
