the narratological approach

The narratological approach examines how stories are structured and presented, focusing on elements like plot, character, and perspective. It analyzes the way narratives create meaning and shape our understanding of events. This approach considers not just what is told, but how it is told—looking at techniques like narration style, time sequence, and character development. By exploring these components, narratology reveals how stories influence our perceptions and interpretations of the world around us, whether in literature, film, or everyday communication.
