"Plexed Artistry": A Study of the Narrative Persona in Selected Works of Vladimir Nabokov

<p>The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the development of a narrative persona in selected works of Vladimir Nabokov. Lolita, Pnin and Pale Fire are novels which seem particularly well-suited to a study of this nature because of the remarkable self-consciousness and vitality of their respective narrators. A chapter has been devoted to each of these novels, and within each chapter the implied relationships between the narrator and those who act upon or react to his resence -- author, other characters and reader -- have been considered.</p> / Master of Arts (MA)
