Exploring Plural Identity Through Creative-Critical Autoethnography: Routledge Studies in Literature and Health Humanities

Autor Elayne Smith
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iun 2026
Exploring Plural Identity Through Creative-Critical Autoethnography offers a unique perspective on the intersection of creative and critical writing and mental health autoethnography, specifically of dissociative disorders. The media have long sensationalised Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), which formerly had the misnomer Multiple Personalities. One of the most misunderstood forms of neurodiversity, this book is about what is involved in learning to live well with the defiant survival mechanisms the brain creates in response to trauma. Readers are invited to encounter a different form of subjectivity from the traditionally perceived dominant mono-mind through various evocative and analytical writing ventures. This book looks at memoir, autobiography, autoethnography and forms of life writing to expose hidden dimensions of the plural subject; critique society’s shaping of the millions of people with this way of being; and to explore the fundamentals of narrative in general and within the memoir genre. This book is for academics within health humanities, as well as literary critics interested in identity and narrative. The book may also appeal to psychologists and sociologists.
