Discover and Resolve Conflicts Presented in Non-Violent Ways

I. Learning Competency

Discover the conflicts presented in literary selections and the need to resolve those
conflicts in non-violent ways (EN7LT-ll-a.4)

II. Background Information for Learners

At the heart of every great story is a conflict (or problem). Conflict involves
problems or obstacles that arise within a story—both internal (or in a character's mind)
and external (caused by other characters or forces). It helps to deepen engagement
with a story or character and provide deeper meaning to the story.
Two types of conflict:
External conflict-one character in conflict with another character/s; one
character in conflict with a group or whole society; one character in conflict with
something in nature
Internal conflict- may involve a character’s struggle to make a decision or to
overcome some feelings such as fear, suspicion, hostility, or sadness.

KINDS OF CONFLICT
1. Man vs. Self is most often seen when a character faces mixed emotions over
his or her actions or a decision that has to be made/has been made. You can
also see this conflict evident when a character is facing mental illness or is
unable to forgive himself or herself over past actions.
2. Man vs. Man is commonly seen in literature and modern storytelling and is a
type of external conflict. This conflict will most often play out between a
protagonist and his or her antagonist, although it can also appear between
friends or acquaintances, as well.
3. Man vs. Society is often seen in Science Fiction and is an external conflict
that involves a protagonist at odds with a ruling body (which could be one's
family), or social or cultural norms.

1
4. Man vs. Nature is where the main character faces some sort of storm or event
that happens as a force of nature (such as an animal attack).
5. Man vs. Technology is when a protagonist is facing machines or technology
(such as mechanical failure or robots) and must prevail against it.
6. Man vs. Fate or Man vs. the Supernatural is a conflict that occurs when
the protagonist finds himself or herself pitted against a vengeful god or
powerful supernatural force.

My sister Delia was the meanest creature I knew. She was eight when I was
born, the day my mother died. Although we continued to live in the same house, she
had gone, it seemed, to another country from where she looked at me with
increasing annoyance and contempt.
My sister was enthroned in a large chair in the porch of the house. Her back
was turned away from the door; she sat facing the window She was embroidering a
strip of white cloth. I went near, I stood behind her chair. She was not aware of my
presence. I unwrapped the centipede. I threw it on her lap.
My sister shrieked and the strip of white sheet flew off like an unhanded hawk.
She shot up from her chair, turned around and she saw me but she collapsed again
to her chair clutching her breast, doubled up with pain. The centipede had fallen to
the floor.
“You did it,” she gasped. “You tried to kill me Eddie. You’ve health… life… you
tried…” Her voice dragged off into a pain-stricken moan.

Activity 1.2

Tungkung Langit was an industrious, loving, and kind god whose chief concern
was how to impose order over the whole confused set-up of things. He assumed
responsibility for the regular cosmic movement. On the other hand, Alunsina was a
lazy, jealous, and selfish goddess whose only work was to sit by the window of their
heavenly home and amuse herself with her pointless thoughts. Sometimes, she would
go down from the house, sit down by a pool near their doorstep and comb her long,
jet-black hair all day long. One day, Tungkung Langit told his wife that he would be
away from home for some time to put an end to the chaotic disturbances in the flow of
time and in the position of things. The jealous Alunsina, however, sent the sea breeze
to spy on Tungkung Langit. This made the latter very angry upon knowing about it.
Immediately after his return from the trip, he called this act to her attention saying that
it was ungodly of her to be jealous, there being no other creature living in the world
except the two of them. This reproach was resented by Alunsina, and a quarrel
between them followed. Tungkung Langit lost his temper. In this rage, he divested his
wife of powers and drove her away. No one knew where Alunsina went; she merely
disappeared.
