Нарративный анализ фэнтези
Narrative analysis of fantasy

Summary/Abstract: The article delves into essential moments in narratologyʼs history that shaped its evolution (Russian formalism, French structuralism, German narratology, Anglo-Saxon literary theory), and explores the plot intrigue within Ricoeurʼs work. Specifically, it focuses on the structural aspects of fantasy using the narrative model of a fantastic story devised by J. Šramek. His model draws from Proppʼs Morphology of the Folktale, in which he describes predetermined functions that are repeated in fairy tales. Šramekʼs model consists of nine functions that follow the logic of a work of fiction. His research into the narrative model of a fantastic story outlined a narrative system that can serve as a common denominator for the fantasy genre. As a result, the model was successfully applied in the analysis of the Harry Potter book series, which proves that it could possibly be applied to other fantasy works as well.
