| Abstract | Narrative identity practices assume individuals have access to their experience. A critical question is the extent to which we can see through the filters of past conditioning and socio-cultural conventions, piercing the narrative veil, to access what is happening in immediate experience. Examples where narrative meanings subordinate practice are provided to illustrate the problem and this chapter highlights how Rollo May, the existentialhumanistic scholar, and the critical theorist, Walter Benjamin, have addressed the issue. |
