Abstract:

The literature indicates that some moderately to severely demented elderly people can still recall their emotionally subjective past. Emotion and cognition have a relationship that can be clearly seen in the recall of nostalgic memories. This article outlines a case study that illustrates how emotional autobiographical memories of past events can be stimulated through the individual use of reminiscence and counseling skills. The authors suggest that there are possible therapeutic effects attached to this approach and that this is an area worthy of further investigation.

Abstract:

Recently, a number of studies have drawn attention to the narrative fabric of autobiographical identity construction. In this process, time plays a pivotal role, both as a structure and object of construction. In telling our lives, we deal not only with the classical time modalities of past, present, and future, but also with the different temporal orders of natural, cultural, and individual processes. We find all forms of linguistic constructions of time, such as tense systems, tropes, anachronies, and the use of specific narrative genres. In this paper, I shall argue that in the process of autobiographical identity construction a particular synthesis of cultural and individual orders of time takes place. The result is autobiographical time, the time of one’s life. For this synthesis the form of narrative is not only the most adequate form, it is the only form in which this most complex mode of human time construction can exist at all. Discussing various case studies, I shall distinguish six different narrative models of autobiographical time: the linear, circular, cyclical, spiral, static, and fragmentary model. To study how people make use of these models in their autobiographical narratives is to investigate how we become immersed into the fabric of culture and, at the same time, express our unique individuality.

Abstract:

This thesis documents the evolution of a research journey which remains a work in progress. The primary goal of this study was to collaboratively create and lead a health promoting high school. This study has two distinct but intertwined areas of focus: action research fieldwork conducted to design and infuse health promoting principles into the context of a traditional, standards based high school, and the documentation and reflection of the professional practice and leadership strategies used to implement the study. This thesis documents the efforts of a school leader to respond to the array of information and research generated by governmental agencies, professional publications and mainstream media suggesting the need for public school educators and school leaders to address national public health goals and the health needs of children within the school setting. Driven by the dearth of literature related to leading health promoting schools in conjunction with the abundance of compelling research citing the health needs of children and the connection of health to lifelong wellness, this study sought to work collaboratively with students, staff, district administrators, and members of the community to integrate health promoting principles into a traditional, standards based culture. Throughout the study intertwined phases of collaborative action research and reflective professional practice were supported by a continual infusion of a multidisciplinary array of literature resulting in the design and implementation of eco-holistic approaches to promoting health and well-being for staff and students within my school. The outcomes of this study far exceeded my expectations. For example, the collaborative creation of a site specific coherent, conceptual, health promoting framework for the high school which integrated standards based initiatives and health promoting principles was viewed as a significant milestone. Additionally, the voices of students whose predominant involvement drove the actions and design of the study resulted in creating substantial change to the health, physical education and nutrition as well as to support services leading to an improved school mission and health promoting school culture. This study has responded to the growing need for school leaders to address the needs of the whole child and the whole school by creating a foundation and framework for change which aligns with standard based expectations and the goals of a democratic society at large. The documentation of leadership strategies utilized for this whole school approach fill a perceived gap in the literature and may have the potential to inspire and assist other aspiring health promoting school leaders gain the courage and confidence to create the deep changes and disruption to the 'status quo' required to infuse health into whole school improvement initiatives.

Abstract:

This thesis is a case study of the design and development of one Canadian province’s intended Grade 12 Chemistry curriculum. It explores the story associated with its design and development and the lived experiences of the stakeholders involved. The goal is to highlight the dynamic human nature of the curriculum construction process. Specifically, through a case study approach this research identifies several dimensions of the nature of curriculum development considered by Pinar et al. (1995), namely: the “historical, political,…phenomenological, [and] autobiographical” (p. 847). This research determined the factors that influenced this curriculum and the lived experiences of the stakeholders involved. It examined how they reflected on the curriculum process and curriculum product, and investigated the deconstruction/reconstruction processes experienced by some participants. This research helps educators make more informed decisions about designing, developing and implementing curriculum.

Therefore, autobiographical registrations, produced through the use of contemporary art tools, are of the most importance. These registrations build a complementary narrative to the one drawn by the study of the Opus 3 artistic object, a performative and itinerantshow, aimed at infants and toddlers, which is the reason and motivation for this research.

Abstract:

Life-writing has been central to psychoanalysis, which created its own form of biographical narrative. The psychoanalytic case study draws upon the dreams and reminiscences of patients to reconstruct their stories. Psychoanalysis has also profoundly shaped autobiographical consciousness. While psychoanalytic theories and therapies have led to new ways of thinking and writing about the self, psychoanalytic thought also takes up much earlier models of the mind and identity. Through the works of Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung, among others, ‘Autobiography and psychoanalysis’ explains how psychoanalysis has been a shaping force on 20th-century autobiography. The model of the ‘inside out’ suggests an exploration of the autobiographer’s inner world, which is then turned outwards, through writing and towards a readership.

Abstract:

This tripartite chapter calls for a creative approach that engages diverse themes while striving for satisfying resolutions of disciplinary tensions between anthropology and theology. It calls for this even if these resolutions are not achieved. The first part, entitled “Intrapersonal and Interpersonal Dialogue,” is heavily autobiographical, and offers a case study of reflexivity, excusing its indulgence in biographical reflection on account of its intention to pinpoint the very particular and contextual nature of idea development. The second part, headed “Further Conversation Pieces,” picks up just such ideas open to anthropological–theological conversation, including a cautionary gloss on the over-easy use of anthropology and theology as discrete terms. The third and final part, described as “Disciplinary Quandaries,” takes some of these formal classifications of disciplines further and also brings together some personal and institutional factors surrounding both anthropological and theological practice.

Abstract:

This book is a study of solo performance in the UK and western Europe since the turn of millennium that explores the contentious relationship between identity, individuality and the demands of neoliberalism. With case studies drawn from across theatre, cabaret, comedy and live art – and featuring artists, playwrights and performers as varied as La Ribot, David Hoyle, Neil Bartlett, Bridget Christie and Tanja Ostojić – it provides an essential account of the diverse practices which characterize contemporary solo performance, and their significance to contemporary debates concerning subjectivity, equality and social participation. Beginning in a study of the arts festivals which characterize the economies in which solo performance is made, each chapter animates a different cultural trope – including the martyr, the killjoy, the misfit and the stranger – to explore the significance of ‘exceptional’ subjects whose uncertain social status challenges assumed notions of communal sociability. These figures invite us to re-examine theatre’s attachment to singular lives and experiences, as well as the evolving role of autobiographical performance and the explicit body in negotiating the relationship between the personal and the political. Informed by the work of scholars including Sara Ahmed, Zygmunt Bauman and Giorgio Agamben, this interdisciplinary text offers an incisive analysis of the cultural significance of solo performance for students and scholars across the fields of theatre and performance studies, sociology, gender studies and political philosophy.

Abstract:

In this chapter, the author explores her personal experience with depression and the healing through applied community theater. The author discusses how her autobiographical performance is similar to aspects of drama therapy, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy. The author explores how four common treatment goals for depression can be addressed through the process of writing, rehearsing, and performing an autobiographical performance. Advice is given to non-clinical practitioners on how to address depression among their clients. Findings from this case study promote that applied community theater, in addition to traditional treatments, can serve as catalyst for furthering the healing of depression.

Abstract:

This chapter proposes to consider urban autobiographical writing as a distinct genre within Arab representational discourse. The discussion focuses on the relationship between individual selfhood and urban space in contemporary Arabic literature. The three case studies are autobiographical narratives published in the 1980s by writers who come from three distinctive culturally, socio-politically and historically Arab urban centers – Baghdad, Mecca, and Alexandria. Aliyah Mamduh’s Habbat Naftalin (1986), Hamzah al-Buqari’s Saqifat al-Safa (1983), and Idwar Kharrat’s Tarabuha Zaʿfaran (1986). The choice to focus on literary texts written in the 1980s is based on the spatial, social, and cultural metamorphoses of these metropolises and their impact on individual and collective identities of the cities’ inhabitants during this period. This study argues that a close examination of Arab urban autobiography can potentially reveal some new and yet to be explored aspects of contemporary Arab selfhood, given the important role metropolises play in shaping of various aspects of modern Arab life.

Abstract:

In social network analysis, centrality measures are used to translate empirical and common sense observations of social behaviour into mathematical expressions. In order to assess how well an algorithm performs in conditions of imperfect data, researchers typically first select either a random or a realworld network, compute a variety of centrality measures, and declare these values to be their point of reference. In a second step, they manipulate these referential networks by adding or removing nodes or ties, again either randomly or following a set of rules. They then compare the centrality measures of the referential network to the ones gathered from the manipulated network. Borgatti et al. (2006) used this approach on a large number of randomly generated networks and found that as long as manipulations were minor (c.10 per cent), results remained reasonably similar to the referential networks’ measures. This approach helps to shed light on the impact of false and missing data on centrality computations, and also helps us to assess the ability of these algorithms to describe social reality (as we reconstruct it) itself. It is surprising that the effectiveness of centrality measures to accurately describe notoriously vague concepts such as ‘power’ or ‘influence’ has not been used alongside empirical observations more often (similarly: Zemljič and Hlebec 2005: 74). In this chapter, I will compare the performance of common centrality measures with the results of an in-depth reconstruction of six historical networks: in this case, support networks for persecuted Jews during the Second World War. Data were extracted from historical narratives, contemporary and retrospective autobiographical reports, interviews, applications for remuneration, and police interrogations. These sources provide a high level of detailed contextual information about the respective ties and actions they represent. It has now become common knowledge that a small minority of Jews managed to survive the Holocaust in hiding and with support from a small and diverse group of helpers. Soon after the end of the Second World War, historians, sociologists, (social) psychologists, and scholars from many other disciplines began to analyse stories of help and survival and found several answers to what seemed to be the key question: ‘Why did helpers decide to help?’

It examines how Djahnine uses aspects of the performative documentary mode for personal and autobiographical explorations of Algerian history and culture, creating a personal and political memory-narrative that acts as a posthumous response to a letter written to her by her sister Nabila before her assassination on 15 February 1995 in Tizi Ouzou, Algeria. The chapter will also touch on the context of the Black Decade in Algeria and its subsequent impact on women's voices and expression, using Letter to my Sister as a case study.

Abstract:

In this chapter, the author proposes using the qualitative research method of autoethnography to improve one's practice in teaching English to students of other languages (TESOL). This chapter first includes an overview of autoethnography followed by discussion of evidence-based practices and learning activities that apply the methodology. The chapter then explores the method through a case study involving the author and her son. Through this autoethnography account, the author demonstrates the process of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting autobiographical data to gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and our students. The case demonstrates how intersectionalities, including race and gender, have an impact on the learning experiences. In this way, this protocol has methodological and pedagogical implications for TESOL praxis. This chapter finally discusses the implications of this methodology in TESOL as a viable qualitative research methodology to gain new insights and understandings for TESOL educators.

Full text

Abstract:

This chapter presents a theory of creativity as a transformative process, derived from the study of a group of modernist writers used as case studies. Such transformation has analogues in the neuroscientific study of creativity, which deals with dynamic interactions between nonconscious and conscious processing. Certain literary authors illuminate the extent to which the creative process is conscious and top-down yet also nonconscious and bottom-up according to different states of the brain at different stages of the creative process. The prefix “trans” describes the brain’s interconnectivity that is exemplified in the transforming strategies that contribute to the artistry of these authors. Writers like Proust, Joyce, Woolf, Faulkner, and Anaïs Nin transform their life material into the art of their fiction through a variety of literary devices that can be scrutinized. The autobiographical material derives from various preliminary modes of creativity—the default mode network (DMN) in Nin, the rapid eye movement (REM) sleep mode among the Surrealists, encoded emotional memories in the case of Woolf and Nin, and fragments of quotidian life in the case of Henry James, Joyce, and Faulkner. These writers were cognizant of their creative processes, writing about them in notes, letters, diaries, memoirs, and prefaces and enacting them in their creative works.

Abstract:

This is a transcript of an interview with Gary Watson conducted by Sarah Buss on November 3, 2016. It commences with some autobiographical context: Watson became interested in philosophy after high school upon meeting a philosophy major at an artist’s colony. The study of political philosophy drew him into considering freedom and responsibility, and autonomy. The case of Harris is covered as an investigation of normative competency. Problems with the notion of weak will and self-control are discussed. Asked for any important changes in his thinking, Watson responds that he conflated issues of autonomy and of responsibility; this bears also on responsibility in a weak-willed agent. Finally, Watson asserts that freedom is not just about responsibility; it’s also about having a capacity to direct your life in a certain way. He hopes to investigate this further.

Abstract:

In this concluding chapter, the author makes a sort of experiment in imagining his argument about the history of poetry as a prescription for reading rather than writing. The author addresses the two concerns he has raised in this book: to think about the nature or structure of collective intentions, and to offer a defense of a kind of intense and deliberated inattention to poems. The discussion is partly autobiographical, taking the author's own use and abuse of poetry as a case study. The author reflects on how he sought to read a poem, A. R. Ammons's Tape for the Turn of the Year with another person, but at a distance—“together apart.” He explains how reading poems together may promote an attitude of indifference toward the specificity of any poem in the greater interest of solidarity with other persons. He also proposes an alternative to models of poetic community built around conversation, interpretation, or translation.
