Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

Advances in Biographical Methods: Creative Applications reflects the current status of biographical research as an intrinsic part of qualitative methods as used across the main substantive fields in social sciences. Biographical research has developed from the collection and interpretation of the life story interview and range of ’personal documents’ (e.g. letters, diaries) to, in recent years, interlinking with multi-media, and arts based and other creative multi-sensory methods. The book reflects these exciting developments by mapping the field and outlining ’creative’ cross-disciplinary research which will stimulate the interest of new and experienced researchers.
