An Investigation into the Narration Structure of the Novel Aftab-parast-e Nazanin
Author(s):
Abstract:
Narratology is a branch of literary studies and has its roots in structuralism. It seeks to find a unified universal grammar for various narrative texts. Narratologists have each referred to some of the repetitive models in narrative texts. Gerard Genette is one of the prominent structuralist narratologists who offers a comprehensive plan for analysis of narrative texts. In his theories, Gerard Genette investigates three dimensions of narrative speech, namely time, aspect, and intonation. These three dimensions are made clear by investigating the structure of time, the narration focuses, the narration distance from the narrator's narration, and the numerous viewpoints used in the work. By investigating and analyzing these dimensions, one can achieve an accurate and coherent analysis of a narrative text and assess the fictional ability of the writer in shaping the narrative system and structure of a fictional work. Using Genette's theories, the study explores numerous dimensions of narrative speech and the mutual relations of these dimensions in the novel Aftab-parast-e Nazanin. Mohammadreza Kateb, the author of this novel is a prominent writer in Iran’s contemporary literature and has achieved a special style and readers in recent years. His style is accompanied by complexity, suspension, linguistic games and a tendency towards post-modernism. However, in Aftab-parast-e Nazanin, these stylistic features have been modified a bit. There is a specified beginning and end, and the author tries to attract the attention of a wider range of readers. The present paper studies the different narrative techniques used by the author for the narration of the above said story.
