{"product_id":"discourse-and-style","title":"Discourse and Style","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book examines overlaps, differences, and complementarities between narratology and stylistics, and shows the consequences of this examination for the practical analysis of prose narrative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarratology identifies \u003ci\u003ediscourse \u003c\/i\u003eas one of its two main objects of study (\u003ci\u003estory \u003c\/i\u003ebeing the other), and stylistics, of course, designates style as its concern. Too often, however, work in each of these fields proceeds without attention to developments in the other. This book corrects that situation by looking beneath the superficial similarities between the “discourse” of narratology and the “style” of fictional stylistics. The author shows that the two seemingly interchangeable terms actually refer to different textual elements. For example, both narratology and stylistics identify point of view as an important element of discourse and style, respectively, but each approach conceives of it differently and thus analyzes it differently. This book argues that the different analyses are complementary and shows how they can be brought together. This synthesis leads to richer conceptions of point of view as well as more comprehensive and precise analyses of its functions and effects in individual narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor its theoretical and interpretive contributions, this book will appeal to scholars and students in narrative studies, literary stylistics, and literary theory and criticism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57297862951256,"sku":"9781032894805","price":46.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781032894805.jpg?v=1781053222","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/discourse-and-style","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
