Introduction: Narratives, Narrating, Narrators

Abstract

Issues regarding the relationship between narration and argumentation, as alternative or contiguous enunciative modes or discursive genres, are currently attracting the interest of many within the interdisciplinary community of argumentation scholars. The present collection of essays has achieved to gather an international group of scholars, mainly, but not exclusively, from the field of Argumentation Theory, and put together an anthology of 11 original chapters on Narration as Argument from different perspectives. It tries to be, in this sense, a panoramic state-of-the art book in which the variety of approaches share nevertheless certain common principles and goals.
