Symposium: Francophone Authors and the Story Economy - 28 April 2026

Franz Stanzel 1923-2023

Sadly, Franz Stanzel of the University of Graz passed away on 17 October at the age of 100.

His work in narrative theory remains a bedrock accomplishment for narratologists even today.

In August the German review Anglistik 34.2.2023 published a special issue entitled

"Franz Karl Stanzel at 100" under the editorship of Monika Fludernik and Martin Löschnigg.
