RT Article T1 The function of focalisation in John 13-17 JF Neotestamentica VO 25 IS 2 SP 379 OP 400 A1 Tolmie, D. F. 1959- LA English YR 1991 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1826575839 AB This paper is presented from a narratological perspective and especially from a semio-structuralistic approach to narrative texts. For quite a long time 'point of view' was part of the traditional way of analysing narrative texts, but Genette indicated the inadequacy of this concept and substituted 'focalisation' for 'point of view'. Accordingly, the function of focalisation in John 13-17 is analysed by using the theoretical framework developed by Rimmon-Kenan, who largely follows Genette. Following this theoretical framework, the type of focalisation as well as the facets of focalisation in John 13-17 are analysed with the purpose of descriptionbing the function of focalisation.
