Introduction and Identification Chains in Ian McEwan's Novels

Original language description

Each story (when perused for the first time) is entirely new to the reader, which means that every character or object that arises for the first time in the text must be introduced. Ian McEwan's manner of introducing the characters in his novels to the readers varies from novel to novel, sometimes from character to character. Three novels - Amsterdam (1998), Atonement (2001) and Sweet Tooth (2012) - were chosen as texts subject to analysis. I will explore mainly the initial points of the introduction and identification chains in the stories as well as what follows them, and take a look at why they may have been used and what may be their effect on the text.
