In the decades immediately following the French Revolution, British
writers saw the narrative ordering of experience as either
superficial, dangerous or impossible. Linking storytelling to other
forms of social action, including the making of contracts and
promises, Gavin Edwards argues that the experience of radical
social upheaval produced a widespread scepticism about narrative as
linguistic artefact, the transmission of narrative through
storytelling and the understanding of individual or collective life
as a temporal sequence with a beginning and an end.
