From a technical point of view, which is the difference between the concepts of story and of plot?
The story is the sum of all the events that the author presents in his novel, while the plot refers to those parts of the story that involve the main character directly.
Story is the chronologically-ordered representation of all the information concerning characters, events and settings. It is an abstract version of events, while the plot is the structured matter of the novel.
There is no important distinction between plot and story, as both refer to the elements that form the narrative, the material that constitutes the novel.
The story represents the ‘selection’ which the writer makes among the information and events that constitute the plot.
