Could you tell me what are the two kinds of violence found in literature?

Answer 1

from Foster's How to Read Literature Like a Professor: "the specific injury that authors cause characters to visit on one another or on themselves, and the narrative violence that causes characters harm in general."

Answer 2

The two main types of violence found in literature are physical violence, which involves acts of aggression or harm towards characters, and emotional or psychological violence, which inflicts mental anguish or distress. These forms of violence are often used by authors to evoke strong emotions or highlight themes of power dynamics and human behavior.
