This book showcases a unique, innovative form for contemporary life
narrative scholarship. Life Narrative is a dynamic and
interdisciplinary field defined through attention to diverse styles
of personal and auto/biographical narration and to subjectivity and
ethics in acts of self-representation. The essay is a uniquely
sympathetic mode for such scholarship, responsive to diverse
methods, genres, and concepts and enabling a flexible, hybrid
critical and creative approach. Many of the essays curated for this
volume are by the authors of creative works of life writing who are
seeking to reflect critically on disciplinary issues connected to
practice, ethics, audience, or genre. Others show academics from a
variety of disciplinary backgrounds engaged in creative critical
self-reflection, using methods of cultural analysis, ethnography,
or embodied scholarship to address foundational and emerging issues
and concepts in relation to identity, experience, or subjectivity.
Essays in Life Writing positions the essay as a unique nexus of
creative and critical practice, available to academics publishing
peer-reviewed scholarly work from a variety of disciplinary
backgrounds, and a form of scholarship that is contributing in
exciting and vigorous ways to the development of new knowledge in
Life Narrative as a field. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of the journal Life
Writing.
