Handbook of Narrative Analysis by Luc Herman
Stories are everywhere, from fiction across media to politics and personal identity. Handbook of Narrative Analysis sorts out both traditional and recent narrative theories, providing the necessary skills to interpret any story.
“A comprehensive and coherent account of narratology, [Handbook of Narrative Analysis] is engaging and readable and explicitly oriented toward the reader’s experience”—Sabine Gross, Monatshefte
"This handbook is successful in its efforts to distill complex concepts of narratology for a beginner in the field without over-simplifying or misrepresenting the information. . . . It would make a useful tool in a classroom for upper-level undergraduates or graduate students who are in the early stages of exploring narratology. Similarly, it is an excellent touchstone for researchers more comfortable with narratological thought and who simply need a reference book at hand. It certainly holds value in the field of narratological research and for academics at varying levels of their career."—Sarah N. Lawson, Journal of Folklore Research
