“…Metaphor has been recognized in cognitive narratology as a powerful tool for thinking and can thus function as a textual clue for fictional minds. Nünning and Nünning (2004) have relevantly shown that metaphors are cognitive, mental and perceptual tools for understanding something in terms of another. The basic issue underlying their argument is that, me- taphor is the result of mental operations (Freismann, 2011: p. 34).…”

“…Some of the lines do not create the illusion of a perceptible narrator recounting events. Rather they give us the impression of a monologue structured on concrete metaphoric images (What Cohn calls psychoanalogies; Nünning and Nünning (2004) her inevitable answer would be: "Get out. I don't want any of that tomfoolery."…”

As its main goal, this study seeks to contribute to the analysis of narrative discourse by investigating the strategies and devices provided by modern prose fictions like D.H. Lawrence's The Fox for constructing/representing fictional minds or the consciousness of fictional characters in narrative texts. The paper is structured in two sections. Drawing from the insights of both Classical and Poststructuralist narratology, the theoretical section of this paper brings together narratological theories, methods, concepts and devices for representing textual minds and consciousness: psychonarration, free indirect discourse (narrated monologue), interior monologue, stream of consciousness, focalization, reflectorization, cognitive methods, and devices of mental states. The second is the analytical section which constitutes a practical demonstration of how the above narratological methods, concepts and devices can fulfill descriptive, interpretive and analytical functions with respect to the question of how fictional minds and consciousness are represented or manifested in modern narratives. On the whole, the paper attempts to answer the question, which narratological categories and methods are relevant for the analysis of mind-related aspects of narrative discourse? For illustrative purposes, D. H. Lawrence's The Fox is used as staging grounds.
