Abstract:

The seven essays gathered in this volume are all concerned, more or less
directly, with what it calls the “unspeakable sentences” of fictional
narrative, that is, sentences that do not bear any explicit mark nor any
implicit indication of a first person and which are not interpretable as the
expression of a speaker’s subjectivity. Chief among them are the sentences of
free indirect style, which this book prefers to call sentences of “represented
speech and thought.” All of these essays were written after the publication of
Unspeakable Sentences: Narration and Representation in the Language of Fiction
(1982). They take up its theoretical frameworks and extend its analyses into
other contexts, where they acquire other uses, other functions, and other
values. Taken as a whole, this work bears witness to the richness and vitality
of the encounter between linguistics, philosophy, and the theory and analysis
of narrative and the novel.
