"Narrative and Culture" draws together fourteen essays in which
leading scholars discuss narrative texts and practices in a variety
of media and genres, subjecting them to sustained cultural
analysis. The essays cross national borders and historical periods
as often and as easily as they traverse disciplinary boundaries,
and they examine canonical fiction as well as postmodern
media--photography, film, television. The primary subject of these
pieces, notes Janice Carlisle, is "the relation between the telling
of tales and the engagement of their tellers and listeners in the
practices of specific societies."
