　　What is narrative? How does it work and how does it shape our

lives and the texts we read? H. Porter Abbott emphasizes that

narrative is found not just in literature, film, and theater, but

everywhere in the ordinary course of people's lives. This widely

used introduction, now thoroughly revised, is informed throughout

by recent developments in the field and includes two new chapters.

With its lucid exposition of concepts and suggestions for further

reading, this book is not only an excellent introduction for

courses focused on narrative but also an invaluable resource for

students and scholars across a wide range of fields, including

literature and drama, film and media, society and politics,

journalism, autobiography, history, and still others throughout the

arts, humanities, and social sciences.
