Aside from the great story, one thing that intrigued me about the novel was how Goldman presented the text. Instead of situating himself as the author, he created the pseudonym S. Morgenstern while he claimed to be abridging the story. In addition to inventing this fictional author, Goldman invents the kingdoms of Florin and Guilder, which he claims to be real places. Using paratext scattered throughout the pages, Goldman explains excerpts he cut from the \u201coriginal\u201d text and develops a history of the kingdoms and S. Morgenstern. He also reinvents his own history throughout the book, going as far as to tell readers how his father read <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Princess Bride<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> to him when he was sick as a child. Even in the novel\u2019s added introductions for the 25th and 30th anniversary editions, Goldman continues with the charade, inventing a museum dedicated to S. Morgenstern (30th anniversary) and referencing a group of \u201cFlorinese experts\u201d and Florin\u2019s most popular tourist attraction: the Cliffs of Insanity (25th anniversary).\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:720,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">When I first read this book, I wondered why Goldman decided to present <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Princess Bride<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> in this way, instead of admitting to being the author upfront. Fueled by this curiosity, I decided to take a narratological approach to Goldman\u2019s novel for my thesis. What is the point of inventing a fake author and incorporating personal notes into the novel? What do these elements do for the story? What do they do for the reader?\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:720,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">After a meeting with Professor Seiler, I learned that those \u201cpersonal notes\u201d I wanted to investigate were considered paratext, giving me my first keyword and research topic. My meeting with Professor Skalak helped me decide my other keywords, directing me to the theory of narratology and to my second through fourth secondary sources. With \u201cParatext and Digitized Narrative: Mapping the Field\u201d and <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Palimpsests: Literature in the Second Degree <\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I hope to further my understanding of what paratext is and how it can contribute to a text. <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Cambridge Companion to Fantasy Literature<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> and the journal <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Mythlore <\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">will help me explore the fantasy genre in general and narrow my research.

Although the discourse on <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Princess Bride<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> is limited and mostly focuses on the movie, I plan to continue sifting through what I can find in\u00a0case there is something I can apply to my own investigation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Update:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">Since my original post, I have decided to add both the film for <\/span><\/span><em><span class=\"TextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">The Princess Bride<\/span><\/span><\/em><span class=\"TextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\"> and the novel <\/span><\/span><em><span class=\"TextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SpellingErrorV2Themed SCXW82543616 BCX0\">Frankissstein<\/span> <\/span><\/em><span class=\"TextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">to my primary sources si<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">nce both <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">weave<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\"> together different <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">stories <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">like Goldman does. <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW82543616 BCX0\">With the movie we see the story of Buttercup and Westley alongside the story of the grandfather and grandson.
