The word “text” is used here in the broadest sense of the term: it denotes literary books, but also oral tales, speeches, newspaper articles and comics. One of the purposes of this volume is to discover what these different texts have in common. The texts are approached from four main perspectives: New Philology, Linguistics, Iconography and Reception studies. Contributors come from diverse disciplines, such as Classical Studies, Medieval Studies, English literature, Philosophy, Religious Studies, Cultural Studies, Art History, Linguistics, and Communication and Information Studies, all united in a common purpose to understand the workings of narrative texts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents List of Illustrations and Tables List of Contributors  Introduction André Lardinois, Sophie Levie, Hans Hoeken and Christoph Lüthy  Part 1 - New Philology 1 Transmission and Textual Variants: Divergent Fragments of Sappho’s Songs Examined     Mark de Kreij 2 In Praise of the Variant Analysis Tool: A Computational Approach to Medieval Literature     Karina van Dalen-Oskam  3 Mutatis Mutandis: The Same Call for Peace, but Diffferently Framed Each Time     Rob van de Schoor 4 The Salman Rushdie Archive and the Re-Imagining of a Philological E-volution     Benjamin Alexander  Part 2 - Narrativity 5 Modality in Lolita     Helen de Hoop and Sander Lestrade 6 Transported into a Story World: The Role of the Protagonist      Anneke de Graaf and Lettica Hustinx 7 Constructing the Landscape of Consciousness in News Stories     José Sanders and Hans Hoeken 8 Quoted Discourse in Dutch News Narratives     Kirsten Vis , José Sanders and Wilbert Spooren  Part 3 - Image and Text 9 Mary Magdalene’s Conversion in Renaissance Painting and Mediaeval Sacred Drama     Bram de Klerck 10 The Difffusion of Illustrated Religious Texts and Ideological Restraints     Els Stronks 11 Illustrating the Anthropological Text: Drawings and Photographs in Franz Boas’ The Social Organization and the Secret Societies of the Kwakiutl Indians (1897)     Camille Joseph 12 The Interaction of Image and Text in Modern Comics     Tom Lambeens and Kris Pint  Part 4 - Reception and Literary Infrastructure 13 Holy Writ and Lay Readers in Late Medieval Europe: Translation and Participation     Sabrina Corbellini and Margriet Hoogvliet 14 Reception and the Textuality of History: Ramus and Kepler on Proclus’ History and Philosophy of Geometry     Guy Claessens 15 Occasional Writer, Sensational Writer: Multatuli as a Sentimental Benevolence Writer in the 1860s     Laurens Ham  Index of Personal Names","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210649952599,"sku":"9789004270800","price":151.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/texts-transmissions-receptions-modern-approaches-to-narratives-9789004270800","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
