Literary Term: Setting

Setting:

  •  the surroundings or environment of anything 
  • the locale or period in which the action of a novel, play, film, etc. takes place
Ex. The garden was a perfect setting for the house.
Ex. The novel Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck takes place during the 1930's in the South of Soledad, California.
