Narrative Research in Applied Linguistics by Gary Barkhuizen

Narrative Research in Applied Linguistics by Gary Barkhuizen

This book provides an overview of narrative research approaches and demonstrates how these work in practice. A broad range of approaches are covered, from well-established and well-known thematic analysis (particularly of 'big stories'), to the more recent sociolinguistic discourse analysis of 'small stories', and the innovative analysis and presentation of visual and performance data such as drawings and drama. This overview includes not just an illustration of narrative research, but the methodological processes which underpin it, relating these to relevant narrative theory. The book, therefore, is both a how-to-do narrative research text and a presentation of narrative studies, providing case study examples and ideas for further research.

Gary Barkhuizen is Professor in the School of Cultures, Languages, and Linguistics at the University of Auckland, New Zealand. His teaching and research interests are in the areas of teacher education, narrative research, and teacher and learner identity. He is former co-editor of the Language Teaching Research journal.
