The Sound and the Fury - a narratological approach

Summary/Abstract: In this paper we are dealing with the narratological approach to the novel The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner. We do not do narratological analysis of the entire novel, but by analyzing the narrative instance and focalization. Each story reveals through certain narrative instance, the narrator, who talks with a certain knowledge and events from their point of view, or from the perspective of someone else. The narrator or narrative instance is the one who tells a story, and his first feature is a narrative function. In this paper, we point to the division of the narrator in relation to the very narrative text and in relation to participation in the story. Focalization is the viewing angle, one prism through which the story is presented. The novel The Sound and the Fury is the story of the gradual destuction of the family Kompson, on the material and moral level. We are determine why storytelling entrusted three sons of the Kompsons, and why, as a narrator, does not appear, Kedi, sister of which narrate all the brothers? The narrator and focalization study relying on theoretical assumptions Gerard Genette, Mike Ball, Rimmon-Kenan, Gerald Prince. Different typologies narrator and focalization raised by these authors, we apply on the novel The Sound and the Fury. Our goal is not only to recognize the characteristic of the narrator and focalization, and determine their typology, but also, to determinate the function that storytelling has.
