The Supervising Viewpoint Sent From the Standpoint of "Dissimilation" : The Narrator in Fiction(<Feature Articles>Aspects of the Narrators)

Abstract

Fictional language is a unique divice for recognizing reality by looking at things in "dissimilation". The author's subjective standpoint of "dissimilation" is renected in the fictional language. The narrator, sent from the author's place, knows the content of the story in detail. The narrator gives the whole story as a complete form. However, this narrator is not almighty. His viewpoint is just relative, because reality can be recognized only subjectively. The narrator's function is to hold the author's subjective recognition of reality and to present it to the readers both indirectly and secondarily. An attempt is made to pursue the history of this function and the viewpoint formation of narrator, by analyzing some literary works.
