Media Narratives and Storytelling
 |
Description
Book Introduction
From folk tales to new media culture
Narrative Concepts and Theories
As we transition from the analog culture of the past to the digital culture of today, narrative culture is also rapidly changing.
But the fundamentals of the narrative that have been passed down since time immemorial remain unchanged.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of the latest information available on the nature of narrative theory.
It also serves as a guide to the major approaches discussed in narrative studies, citing various contemporary narrative forms as examples.
Although many books on the subject of narrative or storytelling have already been published, most of them are written on specific topics or media based on the authors' research interests rather than being solely comprised of discussions related to narrative.
This book provides an overview of narrative studies.
Starting with the basic discussion defining the concept of narrative, it unfolds the discussion of early theorists such as Propp and Todorov, as well as major theorists such as Barthes, Lévi-Strauss, and Genette, and also introduces many recent discussions.
It also deals with recent new media narrative culture, especially Twitter fiction.
Another strength of this book is its application of theoretical discussions to relevant contemporary narrative cases.
