The Narrative Study of Lives : Volume 5 Hardback
by Ruthellen H. Josselson, Amia Lieblich
Part of the The Narrative Study of Lives Series series
Hardback
Description
The narrative approach is a relevant and enriching technique for uncovering, describing and interpreting the meaning of experience.
This collection explores the challenges of performing narrative work in an academic setting, writing about it in an ethical and revealing fashion, and drawing meaningful conclusions. This stellar collection of scholars examine such topics as: how the larger construct of `personality' can read out of a life story; the development of multicultural identity as a dynamic process; the transition away from delinquent behaviour; the importance of cultural continuity for understanding loneliness in elderly refugees; race relations and how it relates to the meaning of the decade in which the interviewees came of age; the experience and meaning of resilience among survivors of childhood sexual abuse; and the use of narrative work as an additional approach within a larger quantitative research project.
