- Title
NARRATIVE OVER-REACHING? ANACHRONY AND FOCALIZATION IN GEORGE ELIOT'S THE LIFTED VEIL.
- Authors
MYDLA, JACEK
- Abstract
Two basic categories of narrative theory are used to examine George Eliot's 1859 novella: anachrony (retrospection and anticipation, but chiefly the latter) and focalization (especially the so-called "internal focalization"). The paper shows how these two devices work together to render the complexities of human psyche. Special emphasis is placed on the story's meta-fictional dimension.
