is the organization of material in a chronologically sequential order and the focusing of the content into a single coherent story, albeit with subplots.

historian Lawrence Stone's definition of narrative: 'the organization of material in a chronologically sequential order and the focusing of the content into a single coherent story, albeit with subplots' (Stryker paraphrases the same statement as follows: 'Narratives . . . organize material into chronological order to tell stories about what happened').' (Polletta 2006 180).
