Inhalt:
"What is narrative? How does it work, and how does it shape our lives? H. Porter Abbott emphasizes that narrative is found not just in literature, film, and theater but everywhere in the ordinary course of people's lives. This widely used introduction, now revised and expanded in its third edition, is informed throughout by recent developments in the field and includes one new chapter. The glossary and biliography have been expanded, and new sections explore unnatural narrative, retrograde narrative, reader-resistant narratives, intermedial narrative, narrativity, multiple interpretations, and more. With its lucid exposition of concepts and suggestions for further reading, this book is not only an excellent introduction for courses focused on narrative but also an invaluable resource for students and scholars across a wide range of fields, including literature and drama; film and media; society and politics; journalism; autobiography; history; and still others throughout the arts, humanities, and social sciences."
