Molnár, JuditNagy, Katalin Zsuzsanna2013-05-292013-05-292008-12-152013-05-29http://hdl.handle.net/2437/169660In my thesis I will explore the multiple functions writing can fulfill and the stylistic methods of Margaret Atwood, a female author who, being an expert in almost every kind of literary genre uses those methods skillfully to captivate her readers’ attention, drawing their focus to writing as an act, the various textual layers, the different genres employed in The Blind Assassin, and their importance. I would also like to analyze the reader's role in “composing” the novel, and the how a self-reflective text can evoke self-consciousness in their reader too, and at the same time questioning their own validity and truth-value.41enCanadian fictionnarrattive techniquesThings Written and UnwrittendiplomamunkaNarrative Techniques and the Function of Different Textual Layers in Margaret Atwood's The Blind AssassinDEENK Témalista::Irodalomtudomány::Összehasonlító irodalomtudományip
