The Narrative Turn in Fiction and Theory by H Meretoja

The Narrative Turn in Fiction and Theory by H Meretoja

The Narrative Turn in Fiction and Theory explores the philosophical and historical underpinnings of the postwar crisis and return of storytelling and shows their relevance for the ongoing debate on the significance of narrative for human existence.

“Hanna Meretoja has written an important, even essential, study of postwar French literary history… her study could well serve as a more general intellectual and cultural history of postwar France … . her study embodies that very dialogical narrativity that is the great achievement of the postwar crisis and return of storytelling.” (Charles R. Sullivan, Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature, newprairiepress.org, Vol. 41 (2), 2017) 

Hanna Meretoja is Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Tampere, Finland, Adjunct Professor and Research Fellow at the University of Turku, Finland, Visiting Professor at the American University of Paris, France, (2013-14) and leads the research project The Ethics of Storytelling and the Experience of History in Contemporary Arts (Emil Aaltonen Foundation, Finland, 2013-15). She has co-edited several books and published articles on forums such as New Literary History.
