- | In principle, "'''narratology'''" refers to any systematic study of [[narrative]]. It is an anglicisation of the French word ''narratologie'', coined by [[Tzvetan Todorov]] in his ''[[Grammaire du Décaméron]]'' (1969), and has been retrospectively applied to many studies that were described otherwise by their authors. Although a lineage stretching back to [[Aristotle]]'s ''[[Poetics (Aristotle)|Poetics]]'' may be traced, modern narratology is most typically said to begin with the [[Russian Formalists]], and in particular with [[Vladimir Propp]]'s ''Morphology of the Folktale'' (1928).{{GFDL}} | + |
