1. Research Topic

Strategy of narration is an important technique in the literary creation, with no exception to works of the outstanding Canada writer---Margaret Laurence, who is dedicated to reflecting the living condition of women. Many of her work are about the theme. In 1970, The Loons was published. Since its publication, it attracted great attention. The novel of the first person narration is of the common narrative type. But, most specially, the experiencing self and narrating self coexist in the novel. The coexistence helps portray an integrated image of the female protagonist. And in the novel, overt plot is intertwined with the covert plot, which portends the destiny of the protagonist. Another narrative characteristic in The Loons is the shifting from first-person limited points of view to the third-person limited points of view. The shifting makes the story more coherent and realistic, leaving readers suspense as well.

This paper intends to answer the following questions:

1. What kinds of strategies of narration have been used in The Loons?

2. How do strategies of narration help explain the reasons for the living dilemma of the female protagonist?

2. Research Methods
Major research methods will include document research, contrast, deduction, and combination of theoretical research and text study.
1). Document Research. A document research is the process of reading, analyzing, evaluating, and summarizing scholarly materials about a specific work. The author of the thesis has looked up in many libraries some background information, including the narrotology, racial discrimination, sexual discrimination, and previous studies on ”The Loons”. In the meantime, the academic database and online materials are used as the references of the study.
2). Contrast. It refers to the logical method of comparing two things in order to show their similarities and differences, which is a major strategy in text analysis. The thesis will make a lot of comparisons and contrasts in the literature review so as to highlight the initiation and distinctiveness of the present study. In the main body of the thesis, contrast will be widely made in the analysis of similarities and subversions of the two texts.
3). Combination of theoretical research and text study. It is one of the major research methods employed in the main body of the thesis. That is, the present study will analyze the detailed similarities and differences of theoretical researches.
