Perspektivische Interaktion im Roman

How do readers come to understand literary characters and the fictional minds they carry? This German-language study takes up that question, asking what role constellations of characters play and how multiperspectivity works in the novel.

Marcus Hartner turns to modern cognitive research to examine how the perspectives of different characters interact. He argues that this interplay matters a great deal for grasping literary texts and for interpreting them, and the analysis is set out with methodological care.

The book suits scholars of literature and narrative theory who read German. It is published by de Gruyter, ISBN-13 9783110289831.
