The omnipresence of narrative in our real-life experience and in the media world makes it a vital and relevant factor for study. This Handbook presents an easily accessible guide to a series of key narrative topics, with concise entries in a transparent format of compact paragraphs allowing quick reference, and omitting footnotes and endnotes to aid fluency. It uses throughout a wide range of illustrative examples from Western and non-Western literature, stressing the universal relevance and application of narrative concepts and techniques. These examples are intended to stimulate interest in less familiar, non-mainstream but important texts, and to highlight unsuspected features in more familiar texts. Engaging with texts from Africa and Asia, the Americas and Australasia, as well as from Britain and Europe, it will appeal to students of Comparative Literature, to creative writers, whose awareness of available techniques and devices can prompt fresh ideas and approaches, while general readers can be introduced to new areas of literary experience.
