The narrative structure is the structural framework that underlies the order and manner in which this story is presented to a reader, listener, or viewer, this work presents a novel visualization methodology that can be used to extract the narrative structure of texts and present in a visual, immediate and intuitive manner. This tool efficiently summarizes the content of a text, and it also allows in depth analysis of the narrative structure.
