- Abstract
SHEN Dan's theory of dual narrative progression forms a significant breakthrough in contemporary narrative studies against the backdrop of the pervasive trend of "post-theory." It has garnered widespread attention and sparked heated discussions among researchers both at home and abroad. The "after theory" era is of paramount importance for constructing innovative theoretical systems and serves as a pivotal juncture for Chinese scholars to engage in the development of the international discourse system in the field of literary theory. Drawing from the research paradigm of contemporary rhetorical narratology, Shen's theory of dual narrative progression goes beyond the traditional focus on plot development by introducing the concept of "covert progression" and, moreover, by paying attention to the joint functioning of covert progression and plot development. Its narratological theoretical framework is built upon eight "dual" models, providing an effective approach for interpretative narrative texts across various literary genres and media. Situated in the "post-theoretical" context, this essay reviews the three dimensions of the theory of dual narrative progression: the post-theory context of its production, the construction of its theoretical framework, and its application in critical practice.
