The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Analyzing Narrative Structures in English Novels

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the analysis of narrative structures in literature, offering computational methods that complement traditional approaches. By leveraging tools such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), sentiment analysis, and machine learning, AI enables researchers to uncover patterns, themes, and character relationships in English novels at an unprecedented scale. This study investigates AI's role in literary analysis, emphasizing its ability to explore narrative structures while addressing algorithmic bias, reductionism, and ethical considerations. Using case studies from Pride and Prejudice, 1984, and Great Expectations, it demonstrates AI's transformative potential and proposes strategies for integrating computational tools with traditional literary methodologies
