Erzählkultur: Beiträge zur kulturwissenschaftlichen Erzählforschung

The volume presents 25 papers on the cultural analysis of narration and narratives. The selection concentrates both on comparative historical narratology and on contemporary narratology as an analysis of consciousness. The authors come from a number of European countries and from North America, and the papers, in German and English, provide exemplary studies from the broad field of research into narrative analysis as a cultural study. The papers all focus on the ""homo narrans"", the human narrator, whose repertoire is influenced more and more by modern media.
