Postmodernism Key Words part 7


Metafiction – Is a literary work where the main thing is the structure and process of narration.The reader's main attention is transferred "from the whole image of the world created by the text to the very process of constructing and reconstructing this yet incomplete image".

Intertextuality –  "The dialogue between texts".Everything that has already been said is written, it is a necessary condition of existence for the newly created verbal texts.

Mise-en-abyme – Object is reproduced within itself. "Story inside a story," "picture inside a picture," , "film inside a film".

The 4th Wall– an imaginary wall between actors and audience in film, theatre or any other work.
