His earliest work, his essay Art as Technique(1917), introduced the concept of ostranenie (making strange) or defamiliarization, one of the devices that constitutes the work of art, and challenged novelistic realism by drawing the readers attention to the strangeness of what is most familiar and thus calling into question the referential function of language. . The former phenomena are pro-narrative; they imply a narrative program; they call for projective narrative thinking to make sense of them. Finally, the level of narration (often called point of view) concerns the specific structure of linguistic presentation and the site of reading. The most characteristic and striking events that can affect an entity or a character, such as birth, metamorphosis, death, name change, kinship and relationship mutations, point at the paradox of narrative: they radically alter a subject at the most fundamental semantic levels (descriptive, definitional, or even ontologicalshe/he has become unrecognizable, she is not the same, she is no more)while at the same time identifying the altered subject as the one to whom it happened to become other or another. Modern novel theory begins with Georg Lukcs, who argued, in his seminal Theory of the Novel (1920), that the novel is the epic of a world that has been abandoned by God, a world in which the extensive totality of life is no longer directly given, in which the immanence of meaning in life has become a problem, yet which still thinks in terms of totality (88, 56).

Introductions to Narratology: Theory, Practice and the Afterlife of Structuralism. In his foreword to Raphael Baronis La Tension narrative, Jean-Louis Schaeffer states, perhaps slightly hastily, that narrative theory, after a peak in the so-called structuralist period, had fallen into dire disgrace in the final two decades of the 20th century, since the findings of structural narratology were held by some as definitive and obvious, while, for others, theory itself had become a dirty word and the very idea of a general narratology chimerical.21 Schaeffers vision is probably too influenced by his focus on the French and Francophone scene. Narratives function like sentences, but they operate on different levels of description. Enter the email address you signed up with and we'll email you a reset link. This structuralist-inspired endeavor began to assume the characteristics of a discipline in 1966 with the publication of the eighth issue of Communications, which was devoted to the structural analysis of narrative and included contributions by the French or francophone founders of narratology.

Narrative syntax, in the etymological sense of syn-tax, is the articulation of minimal narrative units in the textual, experiential, and diegetic spatiotemporal frames required to obtain coherence, sequentiality, and, eventually, sometimes, causality. This paper is predominantly theoretical in approach, in that it gathers established ideas from literary theory, narratology, film theory and science fiction criticism, and attempts to apply them in a systematic fashion to the process of creating a final output from a futures project. When Rukmini Bhaya Nair dismantles the metaphysics of the one and ineffable event presented by Maurice Blanchot in The Writing of the Disaster as the ultimate experience, because it is indescribable, she confirms the necessity of reintroducing affect and individuation in historical telling: Numbers make history But in order to render emotion, you need the individual mode, which can only be literary and artistic. /F7 21 0 R The only difference between author and actor being that between a gesture that will be repeated and the imitation/the serious or playful repetition of this gesture, action tightly binds the authorial figure with character, and those two with a reader or receiver who will identify with them and re-enact what was acted by the character in the presented world. Understanding and coming to terms have a cost. While for Shklovsky, distance is a function of the readers estrangement from a thing, for Bakhtin it is largely a function of a relationship between one person and another person, between two distinct living centers of consciousness (656), a relationship that he describes in terms of DIALOGISM. French structuralism, in its softer, more flexible version, with Genettes Narrative Discourse (Figures III) (1972) after Roland Barthess S/Z (1970), multiplied grids and codes to deal with the underlying structures of complex and ambiguous works. Symmetrically, in times of great plague, millennial fears, or disruptive sociopolitical changes, narrative literature will need to develop reassuring tales of ordinariness. Its general structure is characterized by a circular or rather elliptical convolution of the figures, the visible shape of a whirlwind or a maelstrom, caught at a particular moment, but not situated in linear time and endless in principle. The dramatis personae of the folktale consists of seven different character types: villain, donor (provider), helper, princess (a sought-for person), dispatcher, hero, false hero (Propp 7980).

Beyond implicitly recalling the principle of anthropological unity, hardcore structural semantics has little to bring to the narrative comprehension of a world increasingly divided by its push for globalization and its resistance to it. In vast architectonic epics (John Miltons Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained, Sri Aurobindos Savitri) or elongated Bildungsromanen (Great Expectations, Remembrance of Things Past), a comparatively small number of major incidents are highlighted, but all descriptions, non-events, imperceptible changes eventually converge toward the formation of a single and simple summary (Mankind wasor will besaved, Marcel becomes a writer). /Filter /FlateDecode Like structuralism and semiotics, from which it derived, narratology is based on the idea of a common literary language, or a universal pattern of codes . The polysemy criterion of Mircea Marghescou anticipated a post-communist attitude at odds with the actual or imagined demands of the city;2 Roland Barthess readerly regime, reception aesthetics, and reader-oriented criticism, as well as the demise of the author and the foregrounding of the unconscious, all tended to turn literature into a playground for language games.

In the first acceptation, narrativity is usually considered a matter of kind In the second acceptation, narrativity is a matter of degree 51 According to these definitions, narrativity would depend on substantive features or properties that presumably pertain to a text in which they are somehow inscribed (or missing), features ready to be recognized by a reader before he can consider, process, and interpret the said text as (a) narrative. 54. Should we examine verbal communication, oral or written, with no detectable intended aesthetic manipulation and little or no aesthetic added value (when a policeman reports on his night patrols in the morning, when a technician tells you how your computer system crashed), we will equally find that they more often than not tell complete or fragmented stories, or at least propose elements to put to work some kind of narrative program, a more or less open coded pattern that can be played with interactively; such everyday acts of verbal communication are frequently motivated by the narrative drive of the sender or its presupposition in the receiver and simultaneously point to it.

The use of the same signifier, in English, for the adjective and the concrete and conceptual nouns, and the presence of the same Latin etymon in a large spectrum of the semantic field (with narrate, narrator, narration) involve a serious risk of considering narrative phenomena as naturally unified in space, time, and the logic at work. Narrative as such could therefore be seen as a special metonymic operation that substitutes contiguity in time to spatial contiguity, while fictionalization, indifferent to the time factor, is more akin to metaphor. In fact, literature and fi lm often depend on the tensions created between the expected temporal ordering of the story and the actual structure of narrative.
