The use of narrative codes in TV drama: A test sample
Even though TV drama makes use of genre-specific codes it always tells a story. In order to examine the Afrikaans teleplay, The Horse Trader (1982), narrative codes - as explicated by Genette (1980) and applicable to the linguistic narrative - are utilized. These narrative codes prove to be very useful in decoding the teleplay and syslematising hierarchical elements.
