Abstract:

Narrative is a pioneer concept in our trans-disciplinary age. For decades, it
has been one of the most successful catchwords in literature, history,
cultural studies, philosophy, and health studies. While the expansion of
narrative studies has led to significant advances across a number of fields,
the travels for the concept itself have been a somewhat more complex. Has the
concept of narrative passed intact from literature to sociology, from
structuralism to therapeutic practice or to the study of everyday
storytelling? In this volume, philosophers, psychologists, literary theorists,
sociolinguists, and sociologists use methodologically challenging test cases
to scrutinize the types, transformations, and trajectories of the concept and
theory of narrative. The book powerfully argues that narrative concepts are
profoundly relevant in the understanding of life, experience, and literary
texts. Nonetheless, it emphasizes the vast contextual differences and
contradictions in the use of the concept.
