Conflict
Definition:
It is a literary device used for expressing a resistance the protagonist of the story finds in achieving his aims/ dreams. The conflict is a discord that can have external aggressors or can even arise from within the self. It occurs when the subject is battling his inner discord, may be at odds with his surroundings and lastly, may be pitted against others in the story.
Example:
John tried hard to convince himself that his Hollywood dreams were worth the struggle but his parents, and his inner voice of reason, failed to agree.
