It dominates everyday discourse: diaries, schedules, clocks, working hours, opening times, appointments, weekdays and weekends, national holidays, religious festivals, birthdays, and anniversaries. But how do we, as unique individuals, subjectively experience time? The slowness of an hour in a boring talk, the swiftness of a summer holiday, the fleetingness of childhood, the endless wait for pivotal news: these are experiences to which we all can relate and of which we commonly speak. How can a writer not only report such experiences but also conjure them up in words so that readers share the frustration, the excitement, the anticipation, are on tenterhooks with a narrator or character, or in melancholic mourning for a time long-since passed, which we never experienced ourselves? Erica Wickerson suggests that the evocation of subjective temporal experience occurs in every sentence, on every page, at every plot turn, in any narrative. The Architecture of Narrative Time offers a new template for understanding narrative time that combines close readings with analysis of the structural overview. 600 10 $a Mann, Thomas, $d 1875-1955 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Mann, Thomas, $d 1875-1955. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00029132 650 0 $a Narration (Rhetoric) 650 7 $a Narration (Rhetoric) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01032927 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180710062345.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC8A59A8FAD211E7A45C351A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
