Telling Stories overturns traditional definitions of narrative by
arguing that any story, whether a Bette Davis film, a jeans ad, a
Jane Austen novel of a 'Cathy' comic, must be related to larger
cultural networks. The authors show how meanings and subjectivity
do not exist in isolation, but are manufactured by the narratives
our culture reads and watches every day. They call for a critical
practice that, through the fracturing of texts, can alter the
grounds of knowledge and interpretation. This timely study will
interest critics of narrative and culture, as well as students
wanting to extend post-Saussurean theories to popular and canonical
cultures, and to the dynamics of story-telling itself.
