Intermediate Diploma Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject English - Literature, Works, , course: Bachelor in Language and English Literature, language: English, abstract: The aim of this thesis is to trace how David Lodges fictional piece Nice Work (1984) subverts the compositional principles of the canonical realist novel by undermining the principle of mimesis through different devices: firstly, through narratological devices such as the choice of intrusive narrator and the device of breaking frame and secondly, through discursive devices such as transtextuality mainly intertextuality, paratextuality, metatextuality and hypertextuality and parody. This thesis then purports to trace these elements and to delve into the undermining effects these devices have on the compositional principles of realist fiction.
