    About this ebook

    Music and Levels of Narration in Film is the first book-length study to synthesize scholarly contributions toward a narrative theory of film music. Moving beyond the distinction between diegetic and nondiegetic music – or music that is not understood as part of a film’s 'story world' – Guido Heldt systematically discusses music at different levels of narration, from the extrafictional to 'focalizations' of subjectivity. Heldt then applies this conceptual toolkit to study the narrative strategies of music in individual films, as well as genres, including musicals and horror films. The resulting volume will be an indispensable resource for anyone researching or studying film music or film narratology.

      Most of us would agree that music is a language, arguably humanity’s most expressive and oldest language. What it doesn’t have, unlike speech and writing, is precision. Music can be used to express, for example, a feeling of love towards someone – as
