In Drawing Life, Thomas J. Cottle examines the ways people
interpret their life experiences and construct meanings for the
events they have encountered. In this manner, they discover their
various identities and the essence of what we call the self. In
reading the sixteen life studies contained in this volume, we
encounter both inner reflections as well the power of culture to
shape the meanings people give to their circumstances and the
events that befall them. The stories also reflect the role of human
relationships and social institutions in defining our personal
identities and sense of justice. What makes us unique, therefore,
is the personal story we tell as it reveals our constructions of
the world and of ourselves. The stories recounted in Drawing Life
illuminate not only our past, but also our perceptions of the
present and our imaginings of the future. In this way, they become
anthologies of our life experiences.
