A good story or a good identity? The reportability of stories interfering with the construction of a morally acceptable identity KU Leuven
Big stories are typically characterized by a high degree of reflexivity, which results in the construction of a fairly coherent - or even "rehearsed" - identity that is acceptable from a contemporary viewpoint. This article focuses on the life story of a former SS Leibstandarte soldier elicited by means of an interview. Most of the analysis confirms this idea of the construction of a "rehearsed" self, since the narrator consistently presents ...

Yet, the analysis of this set of valuable images leaves many construction ...
“You Have to Set the Story You Know Aside”: constructions of youth, adulthood and senescence in Cinderella Is Dead Universiteit Antwerpen
As with other twenty-first-century rewritings of fairytales, Cinderella is Dead by Kalynn Bayron complicates the classic ‘Cinderella’ fairytale narrative popularized by Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm for new audiences, queering and race-bending the tale in its decidedly feminist revision of the story.
