(Bal, 2017) Narratology: Introduction to the Theory of Narrative - Coggle…

- - - - clocks, schedules, regimentation
  - - - anachrony = either past or present
      - retroversion
        
        flashback
      - anticipation
        
        flashforward
    - - chronological deviances not in the same order
      - visual perception, fragmentation
      - unreal
      - subjective vs objective
        
        consciousness
      - 4 complications arise
      - homonymy
    - - external retroversion = retroversion takes place outside the time span of the fabula
      - internal retroversion = opposite
      - mixed retroversion
      - establish a primary time span
    - - ex retroversions = indications of antecendents = past of actors
      - int. retroversions overlap with primary narrative = compensation for a gap in the story
      - elipsis or parelipsis
    - - stretch of time covered by an anachrony
      - anachrony is either complete or not
      - in medias res = distance and span cover each other completely
      - punctual vs durative anachronies
      - durative = inevitable events
    - - single, covert allusion to fabula's outcome
      - tension/ vision of fate
      - opening summary
      - hints increase suspense
      - curiosity + false hints
    - - deviation of time
      - anticipation within retroversion
      - retroversion within anticipation
      - anticipation turns out to be retro version
      - lack of info = impossible to analyse
    - - order of events vs chronological sequence
      - logic
      - explicit information or indications
      - double linearlity
      - deviations
        
        aesthetic vs psyc effects
      - rhythm = movement from past to present
      - anachronies = chronological deviations
      - in medias res = middle of fabula
  - - - paradoxical
      - 2 events are never exactly the same
      - event happens once but is represented multiple times
      - perspectives
    - - event happens often
      - numerical disproportion results
    - - opposite of repitition
      - series of identitcle events presented at once
      - situation descriptions
      - external iterations
      - internal iterations
  - - - 3 senses
      - perspective, presentation, proximity
      - frame = space where character is situated
      - symbolic
    - - determination = frame of reference
      - familiar vs unfamiliarity
      - freedom
      - general vs specific characteristics
      - forground vs background
      - steady space = fixed frame
      - movement
      - space = site of memory
    - - fixed combinations = topos
      - character connected to space = possibilities
      - spaces influence moods
      - narrative rhythm
    - - indicative of space
      - action explicitely indicates space
  - - - point of view, ways of seeing or perceiving
      - story telling is subjective
      - perspective depends on position, attitude, distance
      - vision of fabula through mediation
    - - chain of perceptions run in time
      - focalization = relationship between vision, agent that sees, what is seen
      - subject of focalization = focaliser = point in which elements are viewed
      - coincides with character
      - accepts vision presented by character
      - external vs internal
    - - shapes the image we receive of the object
      - deixis
      - inclusive vs exclusive humour
      - manipulative effect
    - - EF
      - CF
      - memory = unreliable
        
        discrepancy = trauma
        
        secondary memory
      - could be victims of illusions
    - - fact of experience
      - some questions solved quicker than others
      - focalisers image can be limited
- - - - crisis = short span of time
        
        restriction
        
        representative
      - development = larger period, more realistic
        
        quality
        
        summarised
      - depends on the type of fabula
    - - varying time sequence = elimination, condensation, ellipsis
      - parallels
        
        impossibility of estabilishing a precise chronology
    - - difference between fabula and story
