Narrative development
The contributors to this volume approach narrative development from six different angles: cognitive, interactionist, constructivist, crosslinguistic, sociocultural, and life-span. Their work widely samples the research traditions and extracts individual aspects that are claimed to be central to the topics of "narrative" and "development." Each contributor was asked to answer a set of six questions concerning the relationship between the two topics to facilitate comparisons among the approaches. An indispensable text in the fields of psychology, linguistics, language studies, discourse, and education, this book will be useful for students, instructors, and researchers alike.
