- Full title :Narrative analysis / Catherine Kohler Riessman, Boston University.
Summary
"People tell stories to help organize and make sense of their lives. In the past, their narratives have often been torn apart by social scientists looking for themes, variables, and specific answers to specific questions. But in recent years, the development of narrative analysis has given life to the study of the narrative as a form of information for social research. Why are they constructed as they are? How does one dissect a narrative to understand the lived experience of the narrator? What steps can the researcher take to translate these tales and life stories into usable research? This book provides a detailed primer on the use of narrative analysis, its theoretical underpinnings and worldview, and the methods it uses."--[Source inconnue]
