| Summary: | "Narratology in Practice opens up the well-known theory of narrative to other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Mieke Bal reduces narrative theory to simple definitions of the main concepts and demonstrates their relevance through brief essays on narrative aspects in visual, cinematic, argumentative, historical, and methodological texts. Written as a companion to Mieke Bal's international classic, Narratology: Introduction to the Theory of Narrative, where the examples focus almost exclusively on literary studies, this new book offers more elaborate analyses of visual media, especially visual art and film. Read independently or in parallel with its companion, Narratology in Practice enables readers to use the suggested concepts as tools to assist them in practicing narrative analysis. Demonstrating that narrative is not bound to language and that it is present everywhere in modern culture, Narratology in Practice makes theory useful for students and scholars in a wide range of disciplines."-- |
