Narrative theory

About this book

Narrative Theory: Core Concepts and Critical Debates addresses two frequently asked questions about narrative studies: "what is narrative theory?" and "how do different approaches to narrative relate to each other?" The co-authors explore the scope and aims of narrative from four distinct perspectives: rhetorical, feminist, mind-oriented, and unnatural. As they discuss the relation of the approaches to each other, they highlight significant current debates and map out key developments in the field.
