Abstract
AbstractPerturbatory narration is a new transmedial narratological concept conceived in order to analyze how innovative experimental fictional texts irritate the reader or spectator by transgressing or annulating the rules of the common narrative system. We distinguish three ludic narrative techniques which are sometimes even mutually exclusive, but nevertheless frequently combined in literary and filmic fiction. Perturbatory narration serves to model and systematize a narrative principle which combines devices of these three strategies, in particular of unreliable narration, paradoxical narration and puzzling narration. The dynamic interplay of these devices is illustrated with two short stories by Julio Cortázar, “Continuidad de los parques”/“The continuity of parks” (1964) and “Graffiti” (1980) and the filmic adaptationFuria(1999) of the latter.
