Conclusion 330 $aAn event, defined as the decisive turn, the surprising point in the plot of a narrative, constitutes its tellability, the motivation for reading it. This book describes a framework for a narratological definition of eventfulness and its dependence on the historical, socio-cultural and literary context. A series of fifteen analyses of British novels and tales, from late medieval and early modern times to the late 20th century, demonstrates how this concept can be put into practice for a new, specifically contextual interpretation of the central relevance of these texts. The examples include Chaucer's "Miller's Tale", Behn's "Oroonoko", Defoe's "Moll Flanders", Richardson's "Pamela", Fielding's "Tom Jones", Dickens's "Great Expectations", Hardy's "On the Western Circuit", James's "The Beast in the Jungle", Joyce's "Grace", Conrad's "Shadow-Line", Woolf's "Unwritten Novel", Lawrence's "Fanny and Annie", Mansfield's "At the Bay", Fowles's "Enigma" and Swift's "Last Orders". This selection is focused on the transitional period from 19th-century realism to 20th-century modernism because during these decades traditional concepts of what counts as an event were variously problematized; therefore, these texts provide a particularly interesting field for testing the analytical capacity of the term of eventfulness. 410 0$aNarratologia 606 $aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish fiction$vStories, plots, etc 606 $aEvents (Philosophy) in literature 606 $aFiction$vStories, plots, etc 606 $aNarration (Rhetoric) 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish fiction$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish fiction 615 0$aEvents (Philosophy) in literature. 615 0$aFiction 615 0$aNarration (Rhetoric) 676 $a823/.00924 686 $aHG 680$2rvk 700 $aHu?hn$b Peter$f1939-$0435274 701 $aKempf$b Markus$01057412 701 $aKroll$b Katrin$01057413 701 $aWulf$b Jette K$01057414 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458872603321 996 $aEventfulness in British fiction$92492670 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01778nam0 22003853i 450 001 UFI0291110 005 20231121125907.0 010 $a3519013495 100 $a20010214d1997 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $alat 102 $ade 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 1 $aSexti Pompei Festi De verborum significatu quae supersunt cum Pauli Epitome$fThewrewkianis copiis usus edidit Wallace M.
