[edit] Book description

The book concentrates on the narrative of the television series. Organized into two sections:

(1) set of definitions of narrative in film, in television series in general and in BtVS in particular
(2) geared towards classroom practice and gives information and strategies for teachers as well as suggestions for student activities and templates for worksheets: all very useful.

This book addresses, in an easily understood and user friendly way, questions of narrative structure across long running TV series.

Whilst concentrating on narrative, the book also deals with relating narrative structures with: audience pleasure, mise en scène, and the use of symbolism and metaphor.
