Abstract:
In this paper we defend the notion of narrative identity against Galen Strawson's recent critique. With reference to Elyn Saks's memoir of her schizophrenia, we question the coherence of Strawson's conception of the Episodic self and show why the capacity for narrative integration is important for a flourishing life. We also argue that Saks's case and reflections on the therapeutic role of “illness narratives” put pressure on narrative theories that specify unduly restrictive constraints on self-constituting narratives, and clarify the need to distinguish identity from autonomy.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper presents findings from narrative analyses of interviews with 16 Gujarati women caring for a child with an intellectual disability in a midsized city in India. Participants’ mothering narratives articulate the multiple selves (or identities) they have constructed in the context of their child’s disability. In efforts to align with the cultural discourse on good mothering, women in this study sometimes narrate themselves as knowledge bearers and as agents, as people who labor and triumph over difficult circumstances, but at other times vulnerable and victimized as they navigate both their daily responsibilities and the social expectations and discourses regarding mothering. The identity narratives educate the audience of what mothering a child with an intellectual disability means in this unique sociocultural context.

Abstract:
Claims that the self and experience in general are narrative in structure are increasingly common, but it is not always clear what such claims come down to. In this paper, I argue that if the view is to be distinctive, the element of narrativity must be taken as literally as possible. If we do so, and explore the consequences of thinking about our selves and our lives in this manner, we shall see that the narrative view fundamentally confusues art and life. We learn from art itself that our selves and lives transcend narratives and that thinking in a narrative manner ignores the rich complexity of individual persons.

Abstract:
There are different approaches to the narrative self. I limit myself to one approach that argues narratives have an important role to play in our lives without it being true that a narrative constitutes and creates the self. My own position is broadly sympathetic with that view, but my interest lies with the question of whether there is truth in the claim that to create one’s self-narrative is to create oneself. I argue that a self-narrative may be multiply realised by the inner self—impressions and emotions—and the outer self—roles in work and life. I take an optimistic attitude to the idea that narrative provides a metaphor that may stimulate insight into the nature of self if we accept a plurality of narrative selves. This paper mines a vein of research on narratives for insights into selves without being bewitched into accepting implausible conclusions.

Abstract:
In life stories on addiction, in which dependence is experienced as an antagonistic force, agency manifests as enigmatic. As narrators in these stories usually describe how they lost their agency to a substance, we may ask who then takes over the agency and is the actor. Can material things act with agency? By taking influences from actor–network theory, Bambergs’ narrative positioning theory, Greimas’ narrative semiotics, symbolic interactionism, and critical discourse studies, I propose that addiction stories can be productively approached with an ontology that conceptualizes actors’ agency as relational. According to this ontology, individuals develop addiction in relation to heterogeneous attachments that form an enabling assemblage. Moreover, I propose that life stories on addiction are narratives in which narrators navigate their addiction by negotiating with multiple selves. These selves can be productively identified and analyzed from the perspectives of “story,” “interaction,” and “identity claim.” As a story, in which actors are positioned vis-à-vis one another, life stories on addiction can be approached as narratives that describe the confrontation between the trajectory of the self that is driven by addiction and the trajectory of the self that seeks mastery over one’s life. As an interaction between narrators and interlocutors, life stories on addiction can be examined as performances of interactive selves who do positive face-work to neutralize, rationalize, and justify their “deviant” behavior. And as identity claims, life stories on addiction can be considered embodiments of ideal or normative selves that are articulated in relation to the dominant discourses and master narratives of surrounding culture. By using examples from life stories on addiction, the article aims to clarify with what kinds of concepts and narrative tools we can analyze the interplay between multiple selves in addiction stories.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper engages with the relationship between story ownership – so who owns a story, tellership – so who has the right to tell it, and functions of workplace narratives as well as the broader social practices at work. Drawing upon discourse and narrative analyses, the paper investigates specifically how the negotiation of meaning visible in the often incomplete and fragmented but naturally-occurring narratives points to the discursive struggle over the construction of self within the specific parameters of the notion of professionalism. The paper identifies the facets of story ownership and discusses how each one can be affected by such regulatory forces of the social practices of work.

Abstract:
This paper uses a conceptual framework based in critical personality psychology and a narrative strategy of inquiry to understand how two transgender women, whose lives and identities are depicted by sociological and clinical literatures as unidimensional and pathological, construct a set of multiple, coherent, and transformative selves. Through their unique approaches to questions posed in McAdams' (1995b) Life Story Interview, these women depict multiple selves, a multiplicity not identified in previous research that focused on a single transgender identity. These women's selves include female selves, activist selves, gay-community based selves, and selves related to race, class, and culture. These women demonstrate authentic commitments to social justice and social transformation through their attempts and capacities to establish coherence among these and other multiple selves within contexts related to activism and personal relationships. Finally, these women's lives challenge traditional race/class distinctions as they pertain to privilege. While race and class strongly contextualize both narratives, culture is theorized as a more useful construct in explaining differences between these two women with regard to the social struggles and isolation they face.

Abstract:
People hold narrative expectations for how humans generally change over the course of their lives. In some areas, people expect growth (e.g., wisdom), while in others, people expect stability (e.g., extroversion). However, do people apply those same expectations to the self? In five studies (total N = 1,372), participants rated selves as improving modestly over time in domains where stability should be expected (e.g., extroversion, quick-wittedness). Reported improvement was significantly larger in domains where growth should be expected (e.g., wisdom, rationality) than domains where stability should be expected. Further, in domains where growth should be expected participants reported improvement for selves and others. However, in domains where stability should be expected, participants reported improvement for selves but not others. Hence, participants used narrative expectations to inform projections of change. We discuss implications for future temporal self-appraisal research, heterogeneity of effect sizes in self-appraisal research, and between-culture differences in narratives.

Yen, Yu-Hua. "Narrating selves : the narrative integrity of fictional autobiographies." Thesis, University of York, 2018. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/22001/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines the way writers use fiction as a rhetorical vehicle to thematise and to theorise the project of autobiography — a transformation of life into narrative that involves a negotiation between aesthetics and ethics. It analyses four fictional autobiographies, published since 1988, by Paul Auster, Julian Barnes, Lydia Davis, and Philip Roth. Each text presents an autodiegetic narrator narrating crucial moments in her/his life; they are ordered progressively according to the way each engages with the issue of narrative artifice on the narratorial and/or authorial level. I explore what makes the character narrator’s life-story work, that is, the way s/he negotiates the possible tension between form and ethics, the resolution of which is what I call narrative integrity. The double meaning of the word “integrity”, as a formal and an ethical quality, encapsulates the dual demands of formal coherence and ethical commitment inherent in the challenges of autobiography. This thesis discusses four forms of narrative integrity — contingency, consistency, coherence, and counterpoint — and suggests ways in which they are interpreted differently on the representational and the rhetorical level of the text. Adopting a rhetorical approach to fiction, I address the way the particular representation of autobiography in each text is used rhetorically, not autobiographically, by the author to theorise certain aspects of self-representation in general. I argue that integrity as a critical concept helps elucidate the complications involved in life writing by foregrounding the issue of form, which is necessary, if also potentially problematic, for the articulation of personal truths. This project situates itself within the broad field of ethical criticism in literary studies and explores the relationships between fiction, narrative ethics, and life writing.

Abstract:
Over the past thirty years attention has turned to how people leave a criminal lifestyle and develop an adaptive identity. Within the Criminal Justice System in England and Wales there exist physical activity interventions designed to give people an opportunity to improve their health and facilitate rehabilitation. A review of the literature indicated benefits to developing further understanding of the role of identity (re)construction, embodiment and physical activity in supporting adult desistance from crime. A narrative approach was adopted to explore the embodied, lived experience of people with criminal convictions and life transformation. Approval was gained to access prisons and probation units in England and Wales. Through purposeful sampling, life history interviews were conducted with 16 adults, 13 males and 3 females, with criminal convictions to explore their experience of change. Six people were successfully desisting from a criminal lifestyle, eight were trying to desist, and two were still involved in crime. 14 semi-structured interviews were also conducted with Criminal Justice staff. A narrative analysis was undertaken to explore the personal and public stories. Firstly, exploring the whats (what does the story tell us? Lieblich et al., 1998; Riessman, 2008) and, secondly, the hows (what do the stories do? Frank, 2010). From this analysis and interpretation six aspects of transforming criminal lives were identified and explored: embodied transformation, physical activity, spirituality, age and wisdom, claiming an adaptive identity, and maintaining change. These are represented in the thesis through modified realist tales, creative non-fictions and confessional tales to illustrate their role in the process of desistance from crime. Through the analysis, a six-domain ‘web’ model is proposed as one possible way to conceptualise the active, interdependent and ongoing nature of participants’ journeys in transforming their lives. Finally, implications of the study are reflected upon in relation to theory, practice and future research.

Murphy, Angela. "Possible selves and occupational potential of students with dyslexia : a narrative inquiry." Thesis, Leeds Beckett University, 2017. http://eprints.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/4785/.

Full text
Abstract:
People with dyslexia often face life challenges, particularly as routine screening and diagnosis are not in place within schools (Department of Children, Schools and Families, 2009a). Confusion exists surrounding inconsistent pedagogical training and support. Together, these factors often result in complex societal dichotomies (MacDonald, 2012; Collinson and Penkreth, 2010; McNulty, 2003). While some disengage, or leave school early (MacDonald, 2012) more students with dyslexia access higher education, gain professional qualifications and have successful careers. However, very little is understood about the temporal educational experiences of those accessing higher education, particularly those on level 7 programmes. This research employs a novel perspective, exploring the possible selves (Markus and Nurius, 1986) and occupational potential (Asaba and Wicks, 2010) of level 7 healthcare students with dyslexia. It considers strategies put in place by participants in relation to possible selves of the past, present and future. Narrative inquiry (Clandinin and Connolly, 2000) and the theoretical perspectives of possible selves and occupational potential provide unique methodological and analytic tools and viewpoints. Stories of nine level 7 level healthcare students with dyslexia are explored and narratives are presented as acts and scenes of a play in order to enhance and elucidate the experiences and maintain the “spirit” (Douglas and Carless, 2013 p. 53) and essence of their voices. The main narrative plots, ‘diagnosis’, ‘cheerleaders in the background’, ‘fitting the mould’ and ‘strategies and the future’ identify factors which inhibit and 4 facilitate progress towards reaching occupational potential and desired possible selves. Thought-provoking new insights are provided in this doctoral thesis related to diagnosis, importance of families and some of the challenges of negotiating every day and academic life with dyslexia. Knowledge contributions and recommendations are made to these areas with conceptual developments relating to possible selves and occupational potential and practice recommendations for education, occupational therapy/science and policy.

In this contribution, María-Ángeles Martínez explores the language of engagement in a short extract from Los Detectives Salvajes (Roberto Bolaño, 1998) and its English translation, The Savage Detectives (2007) within the framework of storyworld possible selves (SPSs). Her analysis focuses on the first cluster of SPS linguistics anchors, or linguistic expressions requiring a hybrid mental referent, inclusive of an intra- and an extra-diegetic perspectivizer, in the novel, and discusses its bearing on storyworld possible selves projection and narrative construal. The main narrative function of this first SPS cluster seems to be to invite the activation of readers' past selves as young, restless university students as the part of their self-concepts with a stronger engagement potential in this specific narrative experience.

Abstract:
La investigación académica sobre selfies se ha desarrollado ampliamente en los últimos años. Si bien la cobertura en medios de comunicación tiende a vincularlos con el narcisismo y la superficialidad, los selfies pueden darse en las situaciones más variadas, de lo mundano a lo socialmente significativo. Algunos estudios sobre el tema han adoptado una perspectiva cuantitativa, creando datasets o corpus de Big Data para recoger este tipo de imágenes y facilitar el análisis de sus aspectos formales, como los colores predominantes, el uso de filtros (Zarrella, 2014) o las conexiones a las convenciones del retrato profesional (Bruno et al., 2014). A este respecto, una contribución destacada es Selfiecity (2014), proyecto dirigido por Lev Manovich, que utiliza técnicas de cultural analytics para analizar un gran número de fotografías (120.000 selfies) publicadas en la plataforma Instagram y localizadas en cuatro ciudades. Sin embargo, su principal limitación es considerar el selfie como un objeto de investigación autocontenido, y frecuentemente desvinculado de otros tipos de prácticas de publicación de contenidos personales en las redes sociales. Dicho de otro modo, los selfies que circulan por las redes y plataformas de Internet pertenecen a sus usuarios, los cuales producen diferentes tipos de mensajes que tienen sentido en su globalidad. Nuestra sugerencia es analizar los selfies en este continuo, y entender qué papel juegan en tanto que historias, dentro de una narrativa personal. (Vivien y Burgess, 2013). No se trata, pues, de imágenes aisladas, sino de objetos comunicativos que circulan por las redes sociales. Constituyen algo más que una representación (Gómez y Thornham, 2015), incorporando elementos sociales y conversacionales. De este modo, el contexto del selfie constituye una parte esencial del mismo, entendido tanto en términos tecnológicos como discursivos.En la presente comunicación presentaré un estudio de caso, desarrollado en el marco del proyecto de investigación financiado Selfiestories y personal data (BBVA, 2014-2017). Durante dos años he realizado una etnografía digital de varias usuarias de instagram, mujeres que habían publicado selfies poco después de haber dado a luz. Estas acciones compartían la reivindicación del cuerpo natural -en oposición a las imágenes de cuerpos perfectos- que a menudo muestran determinadas celebrities, incluso después del parto. ¿Qué narrativas generan estas acciones?Para esta presentación elegiré dos ejemplos, que, a pesar de ser distintos entre sí, tienen en común que el selfie por el cual las empecé a seguir no es una imagen aislada, -por muy significante que ésta pueda ser- sino que cobra sentido dentro de una narrativa personal. De hecho, lo que revelan estos perfiles y sus dinámicas de publicación va mucho más allá y proponen matices muy distintos en lo que se refiere a formas de entender la maternidad y el cuerpo. En esta comunicación presentaré datos cuantitativos y cualitativos sobre los tipos de imágenes, interacciones y controversias generadas en el seno de sus narrativas personales.

Abstract:
La Fiesta de Parintins es una celebración popular de la región Norte donde el Bois Garantido y Caprichoso en medio de la selva amazónica. En la arena denominada Bumbodromo, personajes y elementos imaginarios, de leyendas amazónicas y rituales indígenas, actúan como hilo conductor del espectáculo que hoy es la mayor manifestación popular del norte de Brasil y que tiene lugar el último fin de semana de junio. Tomando como punto de partida mis recuerdos de infancia, historias que contaba mi abuela, este trabajo tiene como principal objetivo explorar el backstage del Festival utilizando como marco temporal, el estudio de las transformaciones en el período de 1988 a 2019. A través del estudio de las etapas del proceso creativo, analizaremos la contribución de estos sistemas al mantenimiento del Festival como manifestación de la cultura popular. Haciendo uso de los cuentos de mi abuela como teoría y método, tendremos un instrumento de análisis en la construcción de las narrativas. Haciendo uso de la semiótica de la cultura como teoría y método, describiremos los sistemas y subsistemas de la Semiósfera del Festival de Parintins y así identificar los personajes que compondrán esta investigación. Para comprender la dinámica de esta manifestación popular, recurriremos a los fundamentos teóricos de la Etnocenología de Armindo Bião y Jean Marie Pradier. Para hablar del Festival de Parintins desde los estudios culturales, utilizaremos los conceptos de Burke, Thompson y Canclini. Como soporte metodológico, utilizaremos la investigación cualitativa participativa, además del análisis semiótico para mapear la semiosfera. En cuanto a los personajes principales y secundarios de este proceso, pretendemos garantizar su lugar de intervención a través de entrevistas abiertas, adoptando el método de observación participante, cumpliendo con todas las normas de seguridad por la pandemia de la Covid-19 y el Consejo de Ética en Investigación - CEP.

Abstract:
We have seen drastic changes in the music profession during the last 20 years, and consequently an increase of new professional opportunities, roles and identities. We can see elements of a collective identity in classically trained musicians who from childhood have been introduced to centuries old, institutionalized traditions around the performers’ role and the work-concept. Respect for the composer and his work can lead to a fear of failure and a perfectionist value system that permeates the classical music. We have to question whether music education has become a ready-made prototype of certain trajectories, with a predictable outcome represented by more or less generic types of musicians who interchangeably are able play the same, limited canonized repertoire, in more or less the same way. Where is the resistance and obstacles, the detours and the unique and fearless individual choices? It is a paradox that within the traditional master-student model, the student is told how to think, play and relate to established truths, while a sustainable musical career is based upon questioning the very same things. A fundamental principle of an independent musical career is to develop a capacity for critical reflection and a healthy opposition towards uncontested truths. However, the unison demands for modernization of institutions and their role cannot be solved with a quick fix, we must look at who we are and who we have been to look at who we can become. Central here is the question of how the music students perceive their own identity and role. To make the leap from a traditional instrumentalist role to an artist /curator role requires commitment in an entirely different way. In this article, I will examine question of identity - how identity may be constituted through musical and educational experiences. The article will discuss why identity work is a key area in the development of a sustainable music career and it will investigate how we can approach this and suggest some possible ways in this work. We shall see how identity work can be about unfolding possible future selves (Marcus & Nurius, 1986), develop and evolve one’s own personal journey and narrative. Central is how identity develops linguistically by seeing other possibilities: "identity is formed out of the discourses - in the broadest sense - that are available to us ..." (Ruud, 2013). The question is: How can higher music education (HME) facilitate students in their identity work in the process of constructing their professional identities? I draw on my own experience as a classically educated musician in the discussion.
