This collection consists of eight essays that examine the way
narratives determine our understanding of old age and condition how
the experience is lived. Contributors to this volume have based
their analysis on the concept of "narrative identity" developed by
Paul Ricoeur, built upon the idea that fiction makes life, and on
his definition of "trace" as the mark of time. By investigating the
traces of aging imprinted in a series of literary and filmic works
they dismantle the narrative of old age as decline and foreclosure
to assemble one of transformation and growth.
