The Georgetown University Round Table in Language and Linguistics for 2008 was titled Telling Stories: Building Bridges among Language, Narrative, Identity, Interaction, Society, and Culture, and 17 of the papers delivered there are collected here. Among their topics are narrative performance on early commercial sound recordings, positioning as a metagrammar for discursive story lines, a tripartite self-construction model of identity, identity claims in interview and conversational data, interaction and narrative structure in dementia, concurrent and intervening actions during storytelling in family ceremonial dinners, multimodal storytelling and identity construction in graphic narrative, and the role of style shifting in the functions and purposes of storytelling as demonstrated by detective stories in anime.

Narratives are fundamental to our lives: we dream, plan, complain, endorse, entertain, teach, learn, and reminisce through telling stories. They provide hopes, enhance or mitigate disappointments, challenge or support moral order and test out theories of the world at both personal and communal levels. It is because of this deep embedding of narrative in everyday life that its study has become a wide research field including disciplines as diverse as linguistics, literary theory, folklore, clinical psychology, cognitive and developmental psychology, anthropology, sociology, and history.

In Telling Stories leading scholars illustrate how narratives build bridges among language, identity, interaction, society, and culture; and they investigate various settings such as therapeutic and medical encounters, educational environments, politics, media, marketing, and public relations. They analyze a variety of topics from the narrative construction of self and identity to the telling of stories in different media and the roles that small and big life stories play in everyday social interactions and institutions. These new reflections on the theory and analysis of narrative offer the latest tools to researchers in the fields of discourse analysis and sociolinguistics.

Recenzijas

Every chapter in the book raises interesting and critical issues about how theorists and researchers are to identify, understand and delimit the complex, transactional event(s) they purport to study and report on. Telling Stories: Language, Narrative, and Social Life is an extremely engaging collection of diverse papers that I would highly recommend to anyone doing or considering doing research involving narrative, discourse analysis or text anaylsis. The individual chapters in this book are fully worth reading independently, and taken as a collection interconnected by the three underlying themes, the book itself is a valuable contribution to the field of narrative research and discourse analysis.

Papildus informācija

Including important new work by towering figures in the field as well as intriguing new voices, both American and international, this collection advances the theoretical landscape and expands the study of narrative into an array of new domains. This volume makes a significant contribution to the field of narrative in particular and discourse analysis in general. -- Deborah Tannen, professor, Department of Linguistics, Georgetown University
