Abstract:
The incredulity towards metanarratives in the postmodernist era holds serious implications for historiography. Two "historiographic metafictional novels" (Hutcheon's term), one Flemish and one Afrikaans, are discussed in this article. There is a significant difference in the way these two texts react to ontological doubt. On the one hand there is a celebration of the loss of metanarratives in Het beleg van Laken (Walter van den Broeck). On the other hand this loss is used in a very serious way to undermine existing metanarratives in Kroniek uit die doofpot (John Miles). The joyous humour and c

Abstract This article revisits Julia Alvarez’s critically acclaimed historical novel In the Time of the Butterflies (1994). While much scholarship has paid attention to the novel as historiographic metafiction, its depiction of Rafael Leónidas Trujillo’s regime (1930-61), and its feminist perspective on the Dominican Republic, its racial politics are under-studied. In particular, scholars have overlooked Fela, the Afra-Dominican servant, spirit medium, and storyteller. I argue that studying Fela’s presence in the text as an unauthorized and unauthored voice not only adds complexity to the prod

The endless threadThis article discusses the volume of short stories, Boereoorlogstories, which was compiled and edited by Jeanette Ferreira. The stories are all about the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902) and though some of the stories simply retell history from the point of view of specific individuals, some of the stories are indeed fine examples of postmodernist fiction. In the best stories in the volume the narrators engage with history in a number of ways: by indicating the fallacies of historiography, by contrasting little narratives with the master narrative of official historical documents,

This study was designed to trace the deconstruction of authoritative officialized history in fiction through Postmodern Historigraphic Metafiction. Historiographic Metafiction dismantles the metanarrative of official history and raises the voice of silenced subaltern thus generates mininarratives. The study is thus grounded in Postmodern Historiographic Metafictional theory of Linda Hutcheon for investigation of the “subversive strategies” of officialized history and deconstruction of positively accentuated binary of “us” and negatively accentuated binary of “them” in the backdrop of postcolon

Abstract:
The ambiguity between reality and fiction haunts Einar Már Guðmundsson’s novel Hundadagar (Dog Days, 2015), as it is a fictional narrative about factual, historical figures and events, such as Jörgen Jörgensen, Rev. Jón Steingrímsson, Finnur Magnússon and Guðrún Johnsen, while the same can be said about many other novels labeled as postmodernism. Canadian literary scholar Linda Hutcheon coined the concept of historiographic metafiction to describe fictions as such, which are “intensely self-reflexive”, while “paradoxically lay claim to historical events and personages”.

Abstract This article has a dual focus. It demonstrates the recent repoliticization of Linda Hutcheon’s category of historiographic metafiction through the extension of Marianne Hirsch’s concept of postmemory to lesbian novelists, arguing that this theoretical framework offers a lens through which we can understand some recent trends in lesbian historical fiction. Focusing on the novelist and critic Emma Donoghue’s 2008 novel The Sealed Letter, it also argues that this text’s evocation of an imagined lesbian past, and its use of metafictional techniques, are illuminated by reading it as a high

The aim of the paper is to present Aleksandar Hemon’s The Lazarus Project as a postmodern narrative which employs various strategies such as an altered view of history, namely history serving purely as material to construct a new narrative, a growing emphasis on the manner in which space affects one’s identity and overall hybridity in both the narrative structure and the characters themselves. We shall discuss Linda Hutcheon’s notion of historiographic metafiction as the key concept around which the narrative is formed, followed by a view of the characters’ search for identity in the metaficti

Abstract:
This thesis concerns the novelist John Fowles and analyses his seven novels in the order in which they were written. The study reveals an emergent artistic trajectory, which has been variously categorized by literary critics as postmodern. However, I suggest that Fowles's work is more complex and significant than such a reductive and simplistic label would suggest. Specifically, this study argues that Fowles's work contributes to the reinvigoration of the novel form by a radical extension of the modernist project of the literary avant-garde, interrogating various conventions associated with bo

This dissertation is an exploration of relationships between fiction and history as illuminated by historiographic fiction in general and the historiographic novel in particular. Here the term historiography is employed particularly in several of its many meanings: as the study of the materials and techniques of history, the study of what it means to be a historian, and the study of the philosophy of history. All of these are comprehended in the larger definition of issues pertaining to the writing of history. Four twentieth-century novels are presented and analyzed as historiographic novels.

Abstract:
Historiographic metafiction - self-reflexive postmodernist fiction which incorporates historical events and personages, according to Linda Hutcheon's definition - offers a parodic critique of the epistemology and narrative forms of traditional historiography and historical fiction. Calling into question the totalising grand narratives of "official" history, it refigures the past into self-consciously fictional forms that problematise the ontological boundary between the "real" and "fictional" and challenges the predominant cultural sense of History as the public actions of the Great.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the historiographic nature of postmodern novels. The predominance of the historiographic in postmodern fiction is in marked contrast to modernism. Here, postmodernism is distinguished in fiction by its preoccupation with the past. The most striking feature of postmodern fiction is its reinvention of the historical novel. The postmodern historical novel prefers narratives of catastrophe and exhaustion to revolutionary progress or national awakening. Yet as much as it seemed to coincide with the currency of a facile notion of ‘the end of history’, the emergence of ‘histori

Abstract:
This chapter explores Seth’s invented worlds and interior landscapes, making particular use of Linda Hutcheon’s concepts of the heterocosm and historiographic metafiction, as well as certain frameworks from Hayden White’s landmark work Metahistory (specifically, the conception of three kinds of historiography: fabulous, true, and satirical). Seth ambivalently situates himself in relation to the past by remaking it in fictional form – and in the process encourages the reader to take up a similarly ambivalent position. Seth takes advantage of the credibility often attributed to historicizing discourses, using them to fortify his invented Canadian realities. His work accommodates the double meaning of the word “forge” and in doing so points to the deliberate manipulation of material that even the most apparently neutral history entails. Seth’s work engages readers in the process of making their own historical knowledge. Moreover he prompts readers to make historical knowledge that is ironic, nostalgic, or otherwise ambivalent.
