Abstract

[In chapter 4, I explained that I have retained Bal’s focalizer and the focalized, external focalizer, character-focalizer and perceptible versus nonperceptible concepts. However, I have significantly simplified her “embedded focalization” to become my hierarchical focalization within focalization idea. This is when the focalization of a character-focalizer (CF) occurs within the overall focalization of an external narrator-focalizer (EF), implying that the CF’s views are ultimately subject to the overriding (subtle) ideological bent of the external narrator (EF). The hierarchical structure of such a relationship is denoted as EF1 and CF2.]
