Narratology has been flourishing in recent years thanks to
investigations into a broad spectrum of narratives, at the same
time diversifying its theoretical and disciplinary scope as it has
sought to specify the status of narrative within both society and
scientific research. The diverse endeavors engendered by this
situation have brought narrative to the forefront of the social and
human sciences and have generated new synergies in the research
environment. Emerging Vectors of Narratology brings together 27
state-of-the-art contributions by an international panel of authors
that provide insight into the wealth of new developments in the
field. The book consists of two sections. "Contexts" includes
articles that reframe and refine such topics as the implied author,
narrative causation and transmedial forms of narrative; it also
investigates various historical and cultural aspects of narrative
from the narratological perspective. "Openings" expands on these
and other questions by addressing the narrative turn, cognitive
issues, narrative complexity and metatheoretical matters. The book
is intended for narratologists as well as for readers in the social
and human sciences for whom narrative has become a crucial matrix
of inquiry.
