Abstract:

Since Truman Capote's In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder and its Consequences was published in 1965, there have been many attempts to define and explain the phenomenon of the "non-fiction novel" as a unified narrative genre. Some of these attempts have been highly theoretical and scholarly, but most have been rather loose definitions referring to an extremely wide range of diverse factual narratives. Over the years, so many different works have been called "non-fiction novels" that it now seems as if the notion of such a unified genre is questionable. Surely it is not generical

Abstract:

This paper reads Larry Beinhart’s novel The Librarian (2004) and its nonfiction companion Fog Facts (2005) as a double attempt at writing that is politically invested in representing reality but that nevertheless is openly aware of the postmodern crisis of representation. In this sense, I read both books as indicative of a broad cultural search for forms of writing that engage their readers’ reality without simply attempting to return to a less complicated moment before postmodernism. The paper situates both books within crucial textual contexts: a broad ‘epistemic panic’ about the facts and r

Abstract:

Emmanuel Carrère a publié son premier roman en 1983, dans une période de renouvellement des écritures romanesques et des récits de soi. Nourrie de culture et de pratique cinématographique mais aussi journalistique, son œuvre est d’abord marquée par l’empreinte d’une fiction débridée, avant de se tourner vers le réel. De l’influence de l’épouvante au fonctionnement des tribunaux d’instance, du choix de personnages troubles aux anecdotes autobiographiques sans complaisance, de l’emprise du bovarysme aux origines du christianisme, du désir de performativité à la fascination russe, ses textes frap

Abstract:

This doctoral thesis studies the relationship between journalism and literature in contexts in which freedom of speech is at risk. It takes as primary sources a variety of nonfiction, crónicas, literary journalism and testimonial novels published by Latin American authors in Spanish, from the 1950s to the 2000s. I propose the concept ‘documentary narratives’ to refer to all literary modes of discourse which are related, in diverse degrees, to a journalistic representation of reality. My corpus covers a wide range of topics such as social protests, dictatorships, civil wars, natural disaster, c

This study is comprised of two parts: an unauthorised biography of the South African musician David Kramer, as well as a reflective look at the process of writing this biography. In this regard the following aspects were looked at closely: finding an appropriate style, biography versus propaganda, conjecturing, the bilingual nature of the text, problems of research, ethics, influences, make-believe, approach to the subject, intertextuality, and fictionalisation. The central question of the biography is to highlight the success of a fellow Worcester (the author’s hometown) boy. The central rese

Abstract:

This study examines the literary and journalistic shifts occurring in the 1960s to which both the nonfiction novel and New Journalism arose in response. This thesis examines the two defining texts of this genre: Truman Capote's In Cold Blood and Norman Mailer's The Armies of the Night . I argue that the nonfiction novel was a natural extension of both Capote and Mailer's investments in and experiences with journalism and also provide literary analysis of their texts in light of these investments. The thesis establishes the context and scope of the nonfiction novel, not so much as a sub-categor

First of all, a large number of professional terms are written in medical novels as authors might describe his/her work or treatment experience in detail, using a very large number of terms. Thus, when translating a medical nonfiction novel, translators are required to equip medical science in order to cast light on the story and the message for readers who are not familiar with medical background. Second, medical non-fiction novels are literature rather than textbooks, m

Abstract:

My novel, Fabrications, is a hybrid form combining non-fiction and fiction. This blended genre could appear on the surface to be a contradiction in terms. For some critics, it is an oxymoron. Obvious questions arise such as; how can a factual or historical narrative maintain its integrity when it is written in the literary form of the novel? Does the novelisation of an actual event blur the line between fact and fiction? Is there always a definite line between fact and fiction, between the journalist and the novelist, between factuality and imagination? All hybrid literary/non-literary forms b

Abstract:

Literary representation of character in South Africa is not just problematic but also complicated by racial dynamics, which easily lead to prejudiced portrayal by most writers. Mphahlele's reaction to White writing's "distortion" of the image of Blacks, in his critical texts resulted in his being labelled a protest writer. Concerning his creative writing, he admits that he initially couldn't portray the character of a white person roundedly due to limited acquaintance with him. What he only knows about him and therefore depicts in his early writings is the White stereotype. His acquaint
