Zusack M. (2005) The Book Thief

Another example of a modern text exploring the use of mimesis and diegesis.

Mimesis and Diegesis

Diegesis: Presents an interior/exterior narrator."representation of actions".

Liegh J (2008) Disquiet, Penguin

Mimesis: (mimic) Telling rather than showing, i.e. dialogue.

David Lodge

Lodge mainly designs and develops the theory of Mimesis and Diegesis through Plato's The Republic, Volosinov's Marxism and the Philosophy of Language, and Mikhail Bakhtin.

"This is where Volosino and Bakhtin are useful, because they focus on the way the novelist treatment of reported speech tends towards an intermingling of authorial speech and characters' speech, of diegesis and mimesis."

Lodge, D., 1992. Mimesis and Diegesis in Modern Fiction. The Postmodern Reader.
