Abstract:

This review is an attempt to study historiographic metafiction as a term which is proposed by Linda Hutcheon. By using this term, Hutcheon tries to produce a relationship between the world and literature by combining the fictional elements with the historical events. This paper also contains an analysis about the characteristics of historiographic metafiction.
