What is Today’s Narratology?
Abstract
This paper sought to challenge the triumphalist claim, advanced by David Herman and subsequently widely adopted as the canonical version of narratology’s history, that towards the end of the 20th-century narratology experienced a renaissance, as the so-called ‘classical’ method of narrative analysis was replaced by a variety of ‘postclassical’ approaches. By examining some of the more recent changes in narratology’s object, methods and aims of inquiry, and by focusing in particular on the fate of the notion of narrative, it offered a reassessment of the current state of the discipline.
