Narrative Portraits in Qualitative Research by Edgar Rodrguezdorans
This book explains and demonstrates 'narrative portraiture' as an analytical approach to qualitative data. Narrative portraiture brings the relationship between researcher and participants to the fore and by doing so, it highlights the interpretive power of the researcher and the ethical considerations around it."Narrative portraits in Qualitative Research is an innovative, emerging approach that gives qualitative researchers an additional way to engage with their data creativelyFor me, this approach enabled me to structure the complexity of participants’ lives who joined my studies and ‘do my data justice’. It allowed me to recreate participants’ lived experiences meaningfully. Participants also indicated that this approach helped them to revoice themselves as they wanted to be seen; nothing has been suppressed nor omitted. This opinion resonates with my academic peers, who found this approach thought-provoking since it positions participants at the centre of the study. Each chapter provides clear, easy-to-follow guidelines for the readers to follow Edgar’s thoughts and shows how he has immersed in the data that result in the final products. The clear guidelines will be helpful for any readers who want to recreate their data with any approach that Narrative Portraits offer." -- Dr Tharin Phenwan, Lecturer in Health Sciences, University of Dundee, UK
