"For the specialist in the study of narrative structure, this is a solid and very perceptive exploration of the issues salient to the telling of a story--whatever the medium. Chatman, whose approach here is at once dualist and structuralist, divides his subject into the 'what' of the narrative (Story) and the 'way' (Discourse). . . Chatman's command of his material is impressive."--Library Journal… (plus d'informations)
This seems to synthesize a lot of other peoples' work, particularly Todorov, Genette, Booth and Barthes. I can't actually remember the bits that Chatman puts forward in his own name, which I guess is a good sign that all that synthesis doesn't leave you with a mess, but with a pretty coherent description of narrative art-forms; and I definitely remember thinking that when he argues against one of the aforementioned titans of the discipline, Chatman comes across as more sensible and more sympathetic to, you know, books, rather than theory. That's always a good thing. Despite being part of the structuralist camp, he understands the importance of social and historical context for 'structures,' and admits that a fuller understanding of history and societies than is evident here would help out narrative theory. It's even pretty decent writing. A hard slog, with a lot of definitions and hair-splitting, but better than it could have been. ( )
we listed it somehow at like new. This has pencil markings throughout and some page stains. One of the early books that got me interested in narrative. A summary of the field at the time I was in graduate school. This is actually the 1978 version.

Among the many pressing needs of literary theory- poetics in the broad sense- is a reasoned account of the structure of narrative, the elements of storytelling, their combination and articulation.

In return, I would hope to provide terms that will meet their requirements, terms that have been hardened on the anvil of theoretical debate, so that they can genuinely trust them for their proper work, the elucidation and evaluation of texts.
