Description
This study consists of an exegesis examining modes of narration in literary fiction; and a creative work: an extract of a proposed novel Boots of Spanish Leather. Set in sixteenth-century Spain, this is the story of a shrewd and ambitious young foot soldier striving to escape the peasant class, who, risking everything he holds dear, joins the ill-fated Spanish Armada. The Absentee Narratee mode of presentation developed for use in Boots of Spanish Leather explores the theoretical foundations for the use of second person thought utterances in First Person-Present Tense narrative situations.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
