- Authors
Wang Liya
- Abstract
SHEN Dan stands as one of the most significant and influential scholars in the humanities in contemporary China. She is also a famous scholar in the international academia of narrative studies, with significant contributions to rhetorical narratology in particular. Her theoretical innovation in rhetorical narratology extends beyond the Aristotelian tradition. Her main contributions in this field are the following: (1) championing the notion of "comprehensive structure-style analysis" by taking an interdisciplinary approach; (2) proposing an integrated model of intratextual-extratextual-intertextual "overall-extended close reading" through taking into consideration sociohistorical context and extending attention to intertextual comparison; (3) putting forward the concept of "covert progression," revealing the undercurrent paralleling the plot development; (4) pioneering the exploration of dual narrative dynamics and revealing the joint functioning of plot development and covert progression which contrast or conflict with each other.
