Description

Explore a deep analysis of narrative theory with Monika Fludernik's work on how speech and thought are represented in fiction. This academic text provides a detailed study of free indirect discourse, offering a new perspective on the way language functions within literary works. Building upon the foundations laid by Ann Banfield's Unspeakable Sentences, Fludernik expands existing models to include evidence from conversational narrative, non-fictional prose, and a wide range of literary works. The study spans a massive historical period, covering texts from Chaucer to the present day. This book connects the forms and functions of quotation with discourse strategies found in oral language. It serves as a significant resource for students and scholars interested in the mechanics of storytelling and the linguistic structures that define modern and historical fiction.
