Keeping Ourselves Alive: A Special Issue of the Journal of Narrative and Life History

Keeping Ourselves Alive: A Special Issue of the Journal of Narrative and Life History

Nancy A. Walker
0/5 ( ratings)
This special issue is a compilation of essays -- expanded from papers given at the International Conference on Narrative held at Vanderbilt University -- illustrating the rich possibilities of contemporary narrative study. These essays collectively share the conviction that reading narratives is a dynamic rather than static experience, one in which meaning becomes created in the interaction of language and silence, reader and text, in a constant series of negotiations. In this sense, the creation of narrative is a continuous, living process.
