Abstract:

<i>Narrative Retellings</i> presents pioneering work at the intersection of
stylistics and narrative study to provide new insights into the diverse forms
of fictional and factual narratives and their retellings. Common types of
retelling, such as translation, adaptation, textual intervention and reader
responses are reconceptualised in the chapters, and fresh insights are offered
into experiences retold as autofiction, witness statements and advertorials on
social media. From modernising the most cherished novels of Jane Austen to
deciphering conflicting testimonials following the Hillsborough disaster, this
volume reveals the complexities involved in all forms of narrative retellings.
As such, it makes a valuable contribution to the interdisciplinary study of
stylistics and to the understanding of narrative texts.
