main, central, or 
major character
, or the 
protagonist.
The main character is also be called 
hero or 
heroine
, if he or she deserves to
 
be called so. 
The 
antagonist
is the personage opposing the protagonist or hero.
The 
villain
is the character with marked negative features.
Sometimes in a literary work the writer will give us two characters with 
distinctly opposing features, we then say that one character serves as a 
foil
to the other. 
The foil is so different that the important characteristics of the opposite personage are 
thereby sharply accentuated. Thus a mean person will act as a foil to a kind and 
generous man. It is through the use of the foil that the contrast between the characters 
is seen more clearly. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are designed as foils for each 
other. In J.B.Priestley’s novel 
Angel Pavement 
Mr. and Mrs. Smeeth are also foils, as 
they are distinctly opposed personalities. Mr. Smeeth’s constant apprehension and fear 
of losing his job is contrasted with Mrs. Smeeth’s jolly nature and thoughtlessness, his 
worries about the insecurity of his family and his desire to save money for a rainy day 
are emphasized by the contrast with Mrs. Smeeth’s extravagance and passion to spend 
immediately all the money she gets. 
When a character expresses the author's viewpoint directly, he is said to be the 
author's mouthpiece
. Dr. Watson is considered to be Conan Doyle’s mouthpiece. 
If a character is developed round one or several features, he becomes a type or a 
caricature. A 
type
is characterized by qualities that are typical of a certain social group 


201 
or class. A 
caricature
is a character so exaggerated that he appears ridiculous and 
distorted, yet recognizable. 
M.Twain’s story 
Mistaken Identity 
contains masterfully created caricatures. The 
conductor’s and the porter’s slavish politeness and eagerness to dance attendance on a 
man whom they took for a general, are exaggerated to the utmost. Their “bows and a 
perfect affluence of smiles”, the way they approached “oozing politeness from every 
pore”, Tom's smiling face which was “thrust in at the crack of the door” create a 
grotesque caricature on servility to men of rank and wealth. It is a
 
contrast to vanity, 
cocksureness and satisfaction at being treated servilely, the features round which the 
narrator's character is developed.
