{"product_id":"narrative-in-drama-9789004094062","title":"Narrative in Drama","description":"This book, consisting of three self-contained studies, deals with the Euripidean messenger-speech. The first study concerns the form of the messenger-speech, which is that of a first-person narrative, and the consequences of this form. The second study analyses the messenger's style of presentation. In the third study the place and function of the messenger-speech within the play is discussed.\u003cbr\u003eAlthough scholars have dealt with the messenger-speech before, there is no single, up-to-date work of reference available. The present study aims at filling this void, while making use of analytical tools deriving from narratology and drama-theory. Eight appendices are added, which provide the reader with complete lists of phenomena discussed in the main text.\u003cbr\u003eOften considered transparent and self-explanatory, the messenger-speeches are now shown to be both complex and subtle texts.","brand":"Irene J.F. de Jong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48308075200763,"sku":"9789004094062","price":173.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_04ad3c5e-90ed-455e-b5e8-736b73cc335a.jpg?v=1782518909","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/narrative-in-drama-9789004094062","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
