Routledge Constructing Narratives of Continuity and Change - Routledge Research

This Routledge Research in Education volume brings together academics and researchers from education, psychology, and health studies to explore personal, political, and professional narratives of struggle, resilience, and hope. Drawing on auto/biographical research methods, contributors examine how narrative construction shapes life stories, investigating the influence of significant others, inspirational figures, educational and fictional characters, and mythological elements. The book addresses how personal narrative, often overlooked in social and psychological inquiry, functions as a vital tool for understanding human experience and meaning-making across disciplinary boundaries.
