Présentation de l'éditeur:

The categories of classical narratology have been successfully appliedto ancient texts in the last two decades, but in the meantimenarratological theory has moved on. In accordance with thesedevelopments, Narratology and Interpretation draws out thesubtler possibilities of narratological analysis for the interpretationof ancient texts. The contributions explore the heuristic fruitfulnessof various narratological categories and show that, in combination withother approaches such as studies in deixis, performance studies andreader-response theory, narratology can help to elucidate the contentof narrative form. Besides exploring new theoretical avenues andoffering exemplary readings of ancient epic, lyric, tragedy andhistoriography, the volume also investigates ancient predecessors ofnarratology.
