Abstract:
This book makes an intensive study of James Phelan's rhetorical theory of
narrative. Apart from illustrating six basic principles in doing rhetorical theory
of narrative, the author examines six major issues which are central to
Phelan's rhetorical poetics, namely, focalization, character narration,
unreliable narration, narrative progression, narrative judgments, and narrative
ethics. For each narratological concept, the author minutely conducts a
genealogical study to make the review work complete. The book not only
compares Phelan's rhetorical narratology with classical narratology but also
with other strands of postclassical narratology. A detailed bibliography makes
this book a compendium of narrative theory which is of relevance for scholars
and students of all literary disciplines.
