Abstract
A General Narratology is part of a book series entitled“Western China Schools· Chinese Semiotic Studies”. A breakthrough has been made in this book from the traditional narratology, which usually builds up its theories based on the discussion of novels, movies etc. Beginning with a big picture of general semiotic narration, this book tries to identify the common laws and category characteristics, generalizes theories and principles and puts them back to various genres to prove their effectiveness and possible variations. The book is authored by Zhao Yiheng.
