Narrative and Identity in the Ancient Greek Novel: Returning Romance
ISBN: 9781107491021 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Greek romance was for the Roman period what epic was for the Archaic period or drama for the Classical: the central literary vehicle for articulating ideas about the relationship between self and community. This book offers a fresh reading of the romance both as a distinctive narrative form (using a range of narrative theories) and as a paradigmatic expression of identity (social, sexual and cultural). At the same time it emphasises the elasticity of romance narrative and its ability to accommodate both conservative and transformative models of identity. This elasticity manifests itself...
