The Scales and Forms of Narrative: Reflections on a Selection of Case Studies

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

The following paper critically reflects upon a series of research projects which
employ interpretations of narrative at different scales and in various forms. In all these projects, scale has taken on an important role because it has triggered or informed the development of theories, methodologies and artefacts (both physical and digital), as well as the application of tools and representational techniques (both analogue and digital). The main aims are to identify and make evident the multiple connections between scale, form and narrative, to propose a preliminary classification, and to suggest research areas that can inform further projects and investigations.
