Section outline

  • In this seminar we will deepen our understanding of narrative strategies at the level of text, especially aspects relating to time, characterization and focalization explored in the previous week. In this session, we will be asking how these might be deployed in an analysis of Madame de Lafayette's celebrated novel La Princesse de Clèves.

    In advance of the session, students should finish reading La Princesse de Clèves, as well as consolidating their notes on 'text'.
