Carolyn Ellis is the leading writer in the move toward personal, autobiographical writing as a strategy for academic research. In addition to her landmark books Final Negotiations and The Ethnographic I, she has authored numerous stories that demonstrate the emotional power and academic value of autoethnography. This volume collects a dozen of Ellis’s stories—about the loss of her husband, brother and mother; of growing up in small town Virginia; about the work of the ethnographer; about emotionally charged life issues such as abortion, caregiving, and love. Atop these captivating stories, she adds the component of meta-autoethography—a layering of new interpretations, reflections, and vignettes to her older work. An important new work for qualitative researchers and a student-friendly text for courses.
Industry Reviews
"...Revision is primarily a why-to-do autoethnography book rather than a how-to-do autoethnography manual. It is a testament to the importance and value of autoethnography as a qualitative research method. Ellis examines and re-examines her 'I' in ways that 'aren't easily addressed by orthodox social science.' This book is appropriate for beginner and veteran autoethnography researchers alike, as it showcases some of the finest autoethnographic works in print."... - The Qualitative Report "...Everyone who is interested in autoethnography and ethnography, autobiography and biography, in writing and the rhythm of life should read this book. You should read this book, and feel it, and then go back to work and live it."... - Leanne Pupcheck, Southern Communication Journal
