Understanding Narrative

By: James PHELAN

Playing off Understanding Fiction, the title of Cleanth Brooks and Robert Penn Warren's textbook, Understanding Narrative reveals and explores changes in the landscape of narrative theory and interpretation since that influential handbook defined the terrain. In particular, this collection of new essays represents new conceptions of understanding and broadens narrative to encompass not just canonical fiction but also travel writing, visual art, film and music.
