Hardcover. Condition: Wie neu. 294 pp., 4 fig. b/w. A good and clean copy. -- The 21st-century story economy is grounded on the premise that everyone - from individual social media users to political parties and multinational corporations - needs to become storytellers. At the same time, we witness the erosion of borders between fact, fiction, truth and lies within the public sphere. This book by literary researchers helps different audiences understand and analyse the rhetorical uses and potential dangers of narratives and fictionality. The contributors deal with various contemporary storytelling environments, ranging from social and news media to literary autofiction, and from documentary narration to sexual fantasy. Narratives and fictionality are an asset in today's communication environments, but awareness of their rhetorical and ethical pitfalls will make us better readers. -- Inhalt: Samuli Bjorninen, Pernille Meyer, Maria Makeld and Henrik Zetterberg-Nielsen: Dangers of Narrative and Fictionality: Introduction -- Part I: Narrative, Fictionality and the Public Sphere -- Paul Dawson: Bad Press: The Rhetoric of Narrative in Public Discourse -- Louise Brix Jacobsen: Dangers of Media Hoaxing -- James Phelan: Assessing the Genre of Docudrama: The Case of Aaron Sorkin's The Trial of Chicago -- Part II: Networked Rhetoric -- Hanna-Riikka Roine: The Message Is Not the Truth: Uses and Affordances of Narrative Form on Social Media Platforms -- Jarkko Toikkanen, Mari Hatavara, Maria Laakso and Hanna Rautajoki: Storytelling and Participatory Immersion in the Niilo22 Experience -- Part III: Repositioning the Novel -- Sarah Copland: Tt [.] cannot do any harm to anyone whatsoever': Fictionality, Invention and Knowledge Creation in Global Nonfictions, Joseph Conrad's Prefaces and Chance -- Pernille Meyer: Positioning You: Fictionality and Interpellation in Janne Teller's War: What If It Were Here? -- Rikke Andersen Kraglund: 'But it hurts like I killed someone': Character Assassinations and Karl Ove Knausgaard's My Struggle -- Part IV: Broadening the Scope of Rhetorical Fictionality Theory -- Samuli Bjorninen: On Being Lectured in and by Fiction: Rhetorical Directness and Indirectness of Fictional Instructiveness -- Henrik Zetterberg-Nielsen: Dangers of Fictionality, Human Sexuality and Sexual Fantasies.
