Explanation:

When reading inferno, we can see that something that stands out is the almost lack of character development throughout the story. In most stories, authors tend to focus on developing the characters by showing different sides of them throughout the story, putting a lot of details into the character’s emotions and thoughts, detailing their every thought and action, etc.

Inferno, however, is mainly driven by the characters physical movements. The author clearly puts more emphasis in helping the reader picture every action and move Dante and Virgil make and spends less time focusing on what they’re thinking or feeling. Additionally, we can see supporting characters coming and leaving the story without making any significant contributions in terms of psychological dynamics.. Because of this, we can conclude that the narrative is plot-based instead of character based.
