“Forms of Time and of the Chronotope in the Novel” introduces Bakhtin’s concept of chronotope.
This essay applies the concept in order to further demonstrate the distinctive quality of the novel . The word “chronotope” literally means “time space” and, in the essay, Bakhtin defines it as “the intrinsic connectedness of temporal and spatial relationships that are artistically expressed in literature”.
For the purpose of his writing, an author must create entire worlds and, in doing so, is forced to make use of the organizing categories of the real world in which he lives. For this reason chronotope is a concept that engages reality.
