Stories in Sports Commentary
21st November 2017
In September 2017 Pete gave a paper at the Narratives and Alternative Stories conference at the University of Chester. The paper was called Stories in sports commentary: How narrative strategies of sports commentary reframe fun-runners in the Big City Marathon. It explores sports commentary as an alternative narrative form that provides insight to the contemporary world, identifying how the stories of sports commentary articulate the ways in which neoliberal ideology is embedded in popular culture.
