| Place in narrative fiction narrative functions? | |
| Place in drama how can place be created in drama? | |
| Exposition | =background info that is necessary for reader/audience in order to understand a play, a film or a story |
| Types of exposition in drama | -chorus (isolated) -scenic exposition (integrated) -character: can happen through characters -narrator: fills people in on the background info |
| Exposition: Scenic exposition? | Scenic exposition (integrated): in the course of thing going on sb. says sth -> characters have conversations and we take from it |
| Exposition chorus? | chorus (isolated): one person or group of people who deliver information on stage by eg. saying things |
| eg. Henry V: Prologue | |
| Place in poetry | -Poems can be abstract and not require a spatial setting (often you don’t need a place, because it’s sth universal and not tied to a place or time) -Poems can be about places |
| eg. Westminster Bridge Poem | -City is personified and becomes a character -calm so deep: place and eye merge (his feeling join the poem) -river is personified -City itself is like a big heart nowadays: you don’t see hills, rocks, valleys → time differences |
| Time in fiction | -place and time constructed through language -not real -narrated/narrative time -chronology: (people often tell the stories achronologically by starting at the end or in the middle → way of introducing suspense) -Flashbacks/flashforwards |
| eg. A Short trip on the Tube | |
| eg. Bleak House by Dickinson | |
| time and place - perception (distinguishes the two) | -place perceived as sth material/ sth concrete; variety of places -time is abstract - we cannot touch time: we can’t describe time as we see it or as it materializes through places (eg. if spend year abroad in your school time - in terms of place period..eg. ’’When I was in Bristol’’ - Bristol time period) → Chronotope place: material time: abstract |
| Bakhtin's Chronotope | -temporal and spatial relationships -time thickens and takes on flesh --> becomes artistically visible -place without time reference doesn't work: places change with time, therefore time infuses space with meaning and plot history -we can analize them separately first and then bring them together -living artistic deception: piece of writing, film, painting, whatever → we see it can’t be separated |
| Genres that deal with alternative times (often comes with chronotype) | -Dystopias -Science Fiction -Fantasy Fiction -Alternative histroies =time travel stories |
| time travel historically | |
| recent time travel series | -Rubinrot: written by a German; set in England (interesting, becaus it tells sth about how writers view their local history; easier to write about English than German history) -time travel has developed from being very restricted and now not anymore -Dr. Who started in the 60s -time machine is called Tardis -reference to literal figures (Shakespeare episode, Dickens episode) - |
| Tardis | Tardies: (Acronym) Time and Relative Dimension In Space -nowadays also used in real life for sth that is bigger on the inside -interesting because a very material context (when talking about houses, …) and people actually use it -how literal language can move from being restricted for certain usage to become every day language (cf. Shakespearian English, Expressions from Alice in Wonderland) |
