Narrative

Overview of Narrative

Narrative was also given kudos for being the best publisher of novella-length fiction, and eight Narrative pieces were cited in their Million Writers Awards as notable stories: “Little Fuckers” by Robert Olen Butler, “Stones” by Jeanie Kortum, “Superhero” by Reese Kwon, “Animals” by Edan Lepucki, “Magic Words” by Jill McCorkle, “The Structure of Bubbles” by Emily Raboteau, “The Royal Reykjavík Sex Tour” by Scott Spencer, and “Interview with a Moron” by Elizabeth Stuckey-French.

Narrative writing can be broadly defined as story writing – a piece of writing characterized by a main character in a setting who encounters a problem or engages in an interesting, significant or entertaining activity or experience.  What happens to this main character is called the plot.  The plot follows a beginning, middle, and end sequence.  The middle of the story is the largest, most significant part, which we call the main event.

Narrative therapists, when initially faced with seemingly overwhelming thin conclusions and problem stories, are interested in conversations that seek out alternative stories – not just any alternative stories, but stories that are identified by the person seeking counselling as stories by which they would like to live their lives.

Narrative Medicine helps physicians, nurses, social workers, mental health professionals, chaplains, academics, and everyone interested in person-centered, respectful health care to deepen their self-awareness, clinical attunement, collaborative skills, and creative capacities through rigorous narrative training and practices.

Narrative humility suggests an inward orientation, requiring not only that we learn about others, but that we begin by learning about ourselves—how our past cadre of life stories has built our prejudices and preferences, and how by the very act of listening, we ourselves are always changed into alternative kinds of listeners.

Narrative theory starts from the assumption that narrative is a basic human strategy for coming to terms with fundamental elements of our experience, which include time, process, and change, and it proceeds from this assumption to study the distinctive nature of narrative and its various structures, elements, uses, and effects.

Narrative regularly publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, including stories, novels, novel excerpts, novellas, personal essays, humor, sketches, memoirs, literary biographies, commentary, reportage, interviews, and features of interest to readers who take pleasure in storytelling and imaginative prose.

Narrative is a tool by which we extract (or impose, depending on your perspective) meaning from the chaotic flux of being in the world—the “big, blooming, buzzing confusion” newborns encounter in William James memorable line.

Narratively speaking, laying so much emotion on a single point in time was unwise, as well as trite: it became either the end of the tale or an inflection point, after which there was likely to be a decline.

(November 7, 2006) John Marshall, in a laudatory article for the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, chronicles Narrative’s modest beginnings and swift growth at a time when literary fiction is verging on extinction.As traditional outlets like Esquire, the Atlantic, Harper’s and The New Yorker scale back their publication of literary fiction, Narrative supports writers with competitive compensation and an old-fashioned regard for the value of reading.

How do you use your Narrative Clip?

I use my Narrative Clip mainly for events like parties or spending time with my family and friends.I love the fact that the Narrative Clip allows me to capture candid moments that I normally can’t get with my phone.I also love wearing it when I travel; it is such a great travel companion.

RQ3: Do different types of narratives—such as those in the popular coverage of science or even TED talks—have the same structure as traditional narratives?

Definitions of narratives and stories are highly fluid.The most traditional assumption is that a narrative contains a series of connected events with a beginning, middle, and end.Generally, a narrative is considered a superordinate construct composed of a series of stories or events that could be imaginary or factual.Whereas novels and short-form fiction are narratives, the factual accounts of scientific discoveries are likely less story-like but are still narratives nonetheless.The third research question seeks to establish some of the boundary conditions of the arc of narrative to determine the degree to which scientific stories may adhere to the same narrative structure as more traditional forms of storytelling.

How will you use Clip 2?

I see myself using Clip 2 more regularly than the original Clip thanks to the improved connectivity, which makes it easier to upload and share pictures.I look forward to being able to quickly share what the Clip captured with family and friends.

How do you use your Narrative Clip?

I always carry my Clip with me, wherever I go.However, I only clip it on when there is some special occasion.For instance, holidays, travels or meeting an old friend for a cup of coffee.In the beginning, I used it more as a lifelogging device, but nowadays I use it for more special occasions.I use it a lot when I am out at restaurants and bars.

RQ1: Do different types of traditional stories share similar narrative arcs reminiscent of Freytag’s three processes?

By aligning language features with narrative theory, we have built an exploratory model to evaluate whether a common, normative structure does exist across narratives.On the basis of this model, narrative processes develop in predictable ways.According to our narrative arc framework, we predict the following.

RQ2: Do popular/highly rated stories exhibit different narrative structures from less popular stories?

The essence of a narrative is the story it tells.We have all had the experience of loving a movie or novel that some of our friends detest.Intuitively, the differences of opinion tend to surround the underlying themes rather than on the staging or plot progression.If true, one could make an argument that the narrative structure could be similar between popular and unpopular movies or books.Alternatively, less popular movies and books may be less liked due to their unconventional (or overly conventional) structure.The second research question sought to analyze the transcribed dialogue of movies and romance novels, both of which have been rated by a large number of audience members.

I am also very close to my family and I tend to bring the Clip when we all get together.

What do you see is the major improvements from Narrative Clip to Clip 2?

Out of all of the amazing improvements, my two favorites are definitely the improved connectivity options (Wi-Fi & Bluetooth) and being able to switch out the clip.Since I bring the Clip with me on travels, I will now be able to share pictures with friends and family more easily, instead of having to first connect to my laptop.I’ve also had some difficulties when trying to attach the current Clip to a horse halter, so I look forward to having the versatile mounts.

We have turned off comments, but you can see what folks had to say before we did so.

How do you use your Narrative Clip?

I use the Clip when I am travelling and when I am participating in activities that keep my hands full, like playing sports.My husband and I recently drove along the California coast on Highway 1 and being able to capture parts of the trip, without interrupting the moment was really cool.The Clip is very light which makes it easy to wear, and I have managed to captured several precious moments I otherwise would have forgotten.

How do you use your Narrative Clip?

I mainly use it during the weekends or when I’m meeting with friends.I know that there is always something unexpected that will happen when hanging out with my friends and want to make sure my Clip captures it.I mainly use it for myself, so I can revisit the moments I’ve experienced since I’m a very nostalgic person.I attach it to my clothes — it is a very personal object for me.I mainly want to enjoy my pictures myself and go back, review and relive special moments.

What expectations do you have for Narrative Clip 2? What do you think is most exciting about it?

I think the most exciting parts about Narrative Clip 2 are the wireless capabilities, as you will be able to upload the pictures without having access to the computer.Removing the computer is a huge improvement to the customer experience.For me as a designer, one device less equals less cognitive overload, which is positive for the customer experience.For the users that don’t have the original Narrative Clip, the wireless upload will be obvious – but as they say – “great design is invisible.

RQ3: Do other standard story formats have similar narrative structures?

To summarize thus far, the five corpora that have been analyzed were all fictional stories that share the same basic narrative processes: (i) high rates of words that reflect stage setting at the beginning, subsequently dropping over the course of the story; (ii) relatively low use of plot progression words at the beginning that increase steadily until leveling off close to the end of the story; and (iii) an inverted-U use of words related to cognitive tension peaking midway in the story.Our empirical findings directly confirm what many narrative theorists have speculated about for thousands of years.The mean of these three processes is depicted in Fig.3.As can be seen in this figure, we find that the three narrative dimensions do appear to be consistent with past theorizing on narrative structure: Normatively speaking, staging, plot progression, and cognitive tension appear unfold in a manner much like Freytag’s description of narratives (14).

How will you use Clip 2?

Since I’m currently not too active on social media, hopefully I will become more social and share more pictures with my friends.I like the fact that I will have better control over how the pictures will look – I don’t have to wait too long and be surprised.

Thinking about a video?

We produce high-quality affordable videos nationwide.

What Can We Do?

The first step, clearly, is to become aware of the problem.Once we understand our brain’s craving for narrative, we begin to see narratives every day, all the time, especially as we consume news.The key question we must ask ourselves is “Of the population of X subject to the same initial conditions, how many turned out similarly to Y? What hard-to-measure causes might have played a role?” This is what we did when we unraveled Steven’s narrative above.How many kids just like him, with the same stated conditions — tall, skilled, good parents, good coaches, etc.— achieved the same result? We don’t have to run an empirical test to understand that our narrative sense is providing some misleading cause-and-effect.Common sense tells us there are likely to be many more failures than successes in that pool, leading us to understand that there must have been other unrealized factors at play; luck being a crucial one.Some identified factors were necessary but not sufficient — height, talent, and coaching among them — and some factors might have been negligible or even negative.(Would it have helped or hurt Steven’s NBA chances if he had not lost his father? Impossible to say.

How will you use Clip 2?

With all the new features, I think that I will use Clip 2 more.I will be able to bring it on even more occasions and traveling as the user experience will be greatly improved.

Using data to tell your story can be tricky.Even when we have current and informative data to share, these data can’t always speak for themselves.It is helpful to provide a narrative that not only describes the data, but provides clear evidence for your interpretation of the data.To illustrate this concept, let’s look at the following display of data from a fictional program, Williamsburg Head Start.Williamsburg’s Birth to Five Fall 2017 data on social and emotional development is included in Figure 1.

RQ2: Are there differences in narrative structure between popular and less popular stories?

The second research question sought to determine whether the quality or, perhaps, popularity of stories depended, in part, on their narrative structure.For these analyses, we relied on two additional text corpora—romance novels and the dialogue of movies—that could be used to address RQ2 in addition to serving as replication samples for results found for RQ1.Romance novels and movies were selected due to the fact that they constitute traditional narratives like those used for RQ1 with the added benefit of availability of subjective ratings made by readers of the books and viewers of the movies.All texts were prepared/analyzed in a manner identical to that described for RQ1.
