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 be read out of life story; life
narratives of reform, i.e., the transition away from delinquent
behavior; 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.
Amia Lieblich and Ruthellen Josselson provide insight into how the
narrative appraoch enriches the study of the rare, the unusual, the
common, and the prevalent, always searching for meaning in
peopleAEs lives.
