The human world is replete with narratives - narratives of our
making that are uniquely appreciated by us. Some thinkers have
afforded special importance to our capacity to generate such
narratives, seeing it as variously enabling us to: exercise our
imaginations in unique ways; engender an understanding of actions
performed for reasons; and provide a basis for the kind of
reflection and evaluation that matters vitally to moral and self
development. Perhaps most radically, some hold that narratives are
essential for the constitution of human selves. This volume brings
together nine original contributions in which the individual
authors advance, develop and challenge proposals of these kinds.
They critically examine the place and importance of narratives in
human lives and consider the underlying capacities that permit us
to produce and utilise these special artifacts. All of the papers
are written in a non-technical and accessible style.
