| Summary |
"Although stories of personal experience are often dismissed as anecdotal evidence, Martin Cortazzi shows readers how to gather and analyse substantial samples of anecdotes and demonstrates that it is worthwhile to do so as a research method." "There is increasing interest among a variety of disciplines in the field of narrative analysis and wide recognition of the centrality of narrative in culture and cognition. Cortazzi's work is innovative in two ways. First, it shows how narratives can be analysed from a variety of perspectives, drawing on several models within each of the disciplines of sociology, psychology, literary analysis and anthropology. Second, these models are illustrated through quotation and analysis of the narratives of a significant occupational group - teachers."--BOOK JACKET |
