商品簡介
Guided by his speech-act theory, Kearns (English, U. of Texas-Permian Basin) combines traditional narratology, which seeks the rules or codes of composition of a narrative, with rhetoric's tools for analyzing audiences and accounting for context in the readers' experience. The basic question he pursues is how the various narrative elements isolated my narratologists actually work on readers. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
