Review of 'The Content of the Form' on 'GoodReads'

3 étoiles

Primarily concerned with history vs. narrative, with narrative as the legitimizing force in the question of narrative's bearing on reality. In representation of reality, historical discourse (whether or not it manages to qualify as discourse) is insufficient if lacking narrative dimension.
