UNRELIABLE NARRATION AND TRUSTWORTHINESS KARTON...

Though the phenomenon known as unreliable narration or narrative unreliability has received a
lot of attention during the last two decades  narratological research has mainly focused on its
manifestations in narrative fiction  particularly in homodiegetic or first-person narration.
Except for film  forms and functions of unreliable narration in other genres  media and
disciplines have so far been relatively neglected. The present volume redresses the balance by
directing scholarly attention to disciplines and domains that narratology has so far largely
ignored. It aims at initiating an interdisciplinary approach to  and debate on  narrative
unreliability  exploring unreliable narration in a broad range of literary genres  other media
and non-fictional text-types  contexts and disciplines beyond literary studies. Crossing the
boundaries between genres  media  and disciplines  the volume acknowledges that the question of
whether or not to believe or trust a narrator transcends the field of literature: The issues of
(un)reliability and (un)trustworthiness play a crucial role in many areas of human life as well
as a wide spectrum of academic fields ranging from law to history  and from psychology to the
study of culture.
