- W86298695 abstract "This dissertation explores how contemporary, small-press, speculative fiction deviates from other genres in depicting processes of consciousness in narrative. I study how confluence of contemporary cognitive theory and experimental, small-press, speculative fiction has produced a new narrative mode, one wherein literature portrays not product of consciousness but its process instead. Unlike authors who worked previously in stream-of-consciousness or interior monologue modes, writers in this new narrative mode (which this dissertation refers to as the little weird) use techniques of recursion, narratological anachrony, and Ulric Neisser's ecological to avoid constraints of textual linearity that have historically prevented other literary modes from accurately portraying operations of self. Extrapolating from Mieke Bal's seminal theory of narratology; Tzvetan Todorov's theory of fantastic; Daniel C. Dennett's theories of consciousness; and works of Darko Suvin, Robert Scholes, Jean Baudrillard, and others, I create a new mode not for classifying categories of speculative fiction, but for re-envisioning those already in use. This study, which concentrates on work of progressive, small-press, speculative writers such as Kelly Link, Forrest Aguirre, George Saunders, Jeffrey Ford, China Mieville, and many others, explores new ideas about narrative coherence from points of view of self as they are presented today by cognitive, narratological, psychological, sociological, and semiotic theories." @default.
