Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, TU Dortmund (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Miners, Murderers, Managers: David Peace's Novels, language: English, abstract: This paper will look at crime fiction theory and investigate whether on the one hand the different concepts of classic literature can be applied to "1974" and on the other hand in which ways "1974" is innovative in establishing its own rules. When analysing crime fiction, there are many aspects and characters to focus on. Due to the volume of the paper, not everyone of those will be considered. The paper is divided into literary concepts, central characters as well as central aspects of crime fiction and Peace's language, before talking about Yorkshire Noir fiction and coming to a conclusion. After a brief introduction to literary concepts of crime fiction, central characters like the detective (in more detail), followed by the police, and finally the offenders and the victims will be examined. Turning towards the central aspects, on the one hand fear and paranoia; crimes, investigation and solution; interrogation and confession will be discussed, as well as corruption and conspiracy, and series at last. After taking David Peace's language into consideration, classifying "1974" as Yorkshire Noir fiction constitutes the last section of this paper before the closing words.
