Beschreibung

Changes of residence are common in contemporary Western societies. Traditional connections to birthplaces, home towns and countries are broken as people relocate and migrate, yet where they live remains significant to people's identity and stories of who they are. This book investigates the continuing importance of place for women's identities, employing a theoretical and empirical approach based on previous work in narrative and discursive psychology.
Through an analysis of women's talk, the book examines how commonsense meanings shape and limit people's identity-work to establish a connection to place. It argues that talk about place, and especially place of residence, enables a complex positioning of self and others in which identities of gender, class and national identity intersect. It shows how a speaker's multiple interpretations of where she lives remain central to her life narrative, and to her fragile and idealized definition of 'home' as the place in which she may position herself positively.
Narratives of Identity and Place presents a unique and valuable integration of the popular methods of narrative and discourse analysis, compellingly demonstrating the value of these approaches for research on identity.

Portrait

I'm a creative with ADHD with several identities and various careers from erotic author, editor, sex toy designer to film maker and more. I have always used multiple personalities to fit in and appear 'normal' and I realise this chameleon style behaviour is called masking. It doesn't mean that in that moment I'm not me, just a version of me. I live in Scotland where I'm always getting into my next hobby - I'm currently the Scottish Field Horsebow Indoor Archery Champion... Lots of love Stephanie Taylor AKA OneOfTheMees AKA Tabitha Rayne
