Both the trend toward storytelling and its challenges raise questions of econarratological interest. Econarratology remains, as Timothy Clark remarks, a bit of a neologism (653), but it names an enlarging cluster of scholarship that crosses the bibliographies of ecocriticism and narrative theory. Econarratology is both prompting attention to works not conventionally recognized as environmental literature and raising new questions about canonical texts to the environmental humanities. Beyond its critical deployment to assess texts and narrative techniques, econarratology has, from its inception, also kept an eye on narrative’s uses as a component of “environmental understanding” and medium of encounter, making it a useful orientation within narratologies of science, especially where environmental sciences appear in narratives distributed to broader publics (James and Morel 1). There are several headwinds facing narrative communication of environmental science. Enthusiasm for scientists’ storytelling depends—as do calls for open science and initiatives to move scientific knowledge out of privatized paywalls—on the ethos benefits of transparency, trusting that","PeriodicalId":42787,"journal":{"name":"JNT-JOURNAL OF NARRATIVE THEORY","volume":"38 1","pages":"12 - 37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90907172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The past two decades have seen this prediction come true, or at least its second part, with cognitive narratology. The first part, whether narrative inquiry has changed science, remains a tricky question. Herman’s claim suggests that science has its own style and rhetoric, structured by narrative. And yet, when narratologists train their lens on scientific discourse—the contributors to the present issue included—they usually imply that narrative lacks the precision that science demands. Science communication studies often voice a similar concern: at best, ‘storytelling’ oversimplifies the results of experimental research, but more likely, it distorts them (Katz; Dahlstrom, “(Escaping) the Paradox”). Such concern is not altogether a surprise, given that science works with testable ideas, whereas narratives deal with perspective and interpretation. But the news for narratologists is not all bad: if done responsibly, narratives can make a meaningful connection between science and human experience, thus making factual information more palatable (Dahlstrom, “The Narrative Truth”). This essay will suggest that science narratives which seek to explain unnarratable phenomena choose narrativity over accuracy in order to","PeriodicalId":42787,"journal":{"name":"JNT-JOURNAL OF NARRATIVE THEORY","volume":"42 1","pages":"108 - 87"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89760837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As in other Western countries, Australians feared ‘reds under the bed’ especially from the Cold War on. During World War Two, Stalin was nevertheless something of a popular hero, even appearing on the cover of the popular magazine The Australian Women’s Weekly in 1945. Yet communist culture was never fully at home in Australia, and worker writing remained marginal, even if communism was also a perennial presence in its everyday life (Macintyre). Academic culture valued English literature over the local product. Australia had a strong working class culture, committed to working-men’s rights to a good life, or at least one of frugal comfort. These cultural values were en-shrined in legislation, such as the Harvester Judgement (1907), whereby a worker’s wage was to be based on the cost of living for a man and his family; women’s right to vote came early (1902), subject to race and ethnicity (Indigenous women and men were excluded until 1967). More abstract, masculinist values of mateship and the belief in a ‘fair go’ also under-pinned popular culture and everyday life in Australia. Liberalism ruled as an ideology, but laborism was also a cultural dominant. 1 Social Realism, and Socialist Realism were part of this story. The distinctions often remain less than clear, the terms sometimes used inter-JNT","PeriodicalId":42787,"journal":{"name":"JNT-JOURNAL OF NARRATIVE THEORY","volume":"10 1","pages":"336 - 357"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89138073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peruchi","doi":"10.1353/jnt.2022.0016","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/jnt.2022.0016","url":null,"abstract":"The stereotypical representation with which you are no doubt acquainted is of Socialist Realism as sub-literature, irredeemably marred by censor-ship and control, at best aborted imagination, at worst sheer propaganda. One can certainly admit the truth of this view, but only rigorously insofar as the mistake be avoided of assuming immediate freedom in other kinds of literature. Such an assumption comes almost naturally as a rhetorical and performative result: tarrying on the world of constraints automatically projects a universe of unbridled possibilities. This is why it is fruitful to consider Socialist Realism side by side with its geopolitical counterpart, Capitalist Realism, conceived not so much in Fisher’s sense of a problem-atical disappearance of alternatives to the status quo, but rather as a kind of writing organized around its own salability. Capitalist Realism is the ruling kind of literature today because it is structured around the socially naturalized belief that things only have the right to exist as long as they can be sold and generate profit. In sum, then, in spite of all differences, at least methodologically, the politburo and market can be put side by side as two structures of restriction, a gesture that in turn leads to a displacement of binaries: instead of the opposition Socialist Realism versus freedom, the contrast of two kinds of limitation, perhaps loosely resembling what Guy Debord, in Comments on the Society of the Spectacle , termed “con-centrated” versus “diffuse” spectacle. Of course, one could form yet another analytical distinction, now confronting these forms of control against","PeriodicalId":42787,"journal":{"name":"JNT-JOURNAL OF NARRATIVE THEORY","volume":"30 1","pages":"358 - 378"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80795269","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
