Narrative Theory Reading Group

Date:
Location:
Study Room 209 in the Little Fine Arts Library

I'm including the Google Drive link to the readings for our first meeting, next Wednesday Feb. 20. The readings total about 50 pages (but one is in huge font...). They are both focused on giving us a base level understanding of what exactly we might mean by "narrative theory" (or its slightly outdated, though we can argue somewhat different but essential, precursor narratology).

1) "Narratology" entry from the living handbook of narratology 

2) Prologue - sections 1 and 2 from A Companion to Narrative Theory

***I want to emphasize that I've selected these readings to kickstart us, but I very much look forward to having a lively discussion about particular interests or areas you'd like to delve into more.***

Finally - let me know if you have any questions, problems with the link, etc. See you next week! - Jess
