This twenty-fourth volume in the Longman Critical Readers? series offers a comprehensive overview of the history, theory and practice of narratology,  through nineteen key texts written by recognised authorities in the US and Europe, from the 1950s onwards. The texts, which are commented on individually and set into historical context in the original introduction of the editors, are grouped into five sections. The first three are representative of the central, structuralist contribution to the field, the forth explores the adoption of narratological tools for film studies and the fifth exemplifies its development into post-structuralist narratology.
