This book explores the lives of young people through the lens of
storytelling. Using extensive qualitative and empirical data from
young people's conversations following storytelling performances in
secondary schools in the UK, the author considers the benefits of
stories and storytelling for learning and the subsequent emotional,
behavioural and social connections to story and other genres of
narrative. Storytelling has both global and transnational relevance
in education, as it allows individuals to compare their experiences
to others: young people learn through discussion that their
opinions matter, that they are both similar to and different from
their peers. This in turn can facilitate the development of
critical thinking skills as well as encouraging social learning,
co-operation and cohesion. Drawing upon folklore and literary
studies as well as sociology, philosophy, youth studies and
theatre, this volume explores how storytelling can shape the lives
of young people through storytelling projects. This reflective and
creative volume will appeal to students and scholars of
storytelling, youth studies and folklore.
