Sadly, Franz Stanzel of the University of Graz passed away on 17 October at the age of 100.
His work in narrative theory remains a bedrock accomplishment for narratologists even today.
In August the German review Anglistik 34.2.2023 published a special issue entitled
"Franz Karl Stanzel at 100" under the editorship of Monika Fludernik and Martin Löschnigg.
