The lecture talks about the two types of narrator fiction writers might use. The first type is objective narrator. The narrator knows only what the characters do and what they say. For example a man and a woman taking a trip together, they get on the train, and they sit down. That is all we know. Readers have to interpret the events and fill in the other information. The second type is omniscient narrator. The narrator knows about everything, what the characters do, what they say to each other and what they think. Still about the same man and woman taking the trip, we know the man is really nervous, and he is afraid that his wife may not like his friend. The omniscient narrator can offer more information about the characters.
