∙ 10y agoOmniscience means total and absolute knowledge . In fiction it is used to describe the ability of the narrator to enter the consciousness of the characters and to know all about their thoughts and feelings . The omniscient narrator can span the past , present and future and is in perfect control of the imaginary world created . This convention of fiction is perfectly accepted by readers although in real life no one has such power . It is usually only attributed to God . This is why we often used the adjectives godlike and all-knowing to refer to the omniscient narrator . the omniscient narrator is often (but no always) also impersonal voice . This means that narrator is unidentified .

What is the difference between omniscent point of view and limited point of view?
I will answer this question by relating the limited omniscient point of view to the omniscient point of view: The omniscient point of view feature a narrator who knows all including the feelings and thoughts of all the characters and details of everything related the world of the story, even information that the character themselves are unaware of. Now the LIMITED omniscient point of view is that of a narrator who has ALL the information of only ONE specific character in the story, but does not have that knowledge of any other characters or circumstances. Therefore they are all knowledgeable (omniscient)but this knowledge is limited to one character.
