A detailed, thorough explanation or narrative description of something; an expository account.
From Latin 'enarratio' (explanation, narrative) derived from 'en-' + 'narrare' (to tell, narrate). Developed in rhetorical and scholarly traditions as a term for methodical exposition.
In ancient rhetoric, 'enarration' was the careful, detailed explanation of a text—breaking it down piece by piece. It's like the ancestor of what teachers now call 'close reading' or 'textual analysis'.
