Question

1. when would a limited point of view be preferable to an omniscient point of view? when the author wants us to experience the story through the eyes of the main character when the author wants to tell the story from the perspective of a secondary character when the author wants to give an objective account of the storys events when the author wants us to experience events from multiple points of view

Explanation:

Limited point of view focuses on one character's perspective. Omniscient point of view knows all characters' thoughts and feelings. When the author wants the reader to experience the story through the main character's eyes, limited point of view is used. A secondary - character perspective (if it's a limited view of that secondary character) is also a limited point of view, but the first option about the main character is more general and common. Telling from multiple points of view is not limited. Giving an objective account is more like an omniscient or a very detached third - person (not limited) in some cases.

Answer:
