Abstract
Over the past 30 years we have seen a welcome growth in the understanding of narrative as a complex and broadly defined
set of concepts. While the complexity of children’s narrative development has been brought to light by researchers and theorists across
multiple fields of study, reflecting this growth by comprehensively analyzing narrative complexity still remains a challenge. One reason for
this ongoing challenge is the isolated, disparate focus of the approaches, either in analyzing solely story structure, content, or function.
Few approaches combine these disparate dimensions to comprehensively analyze children’s narratives. In response, we build on research from
the past 30 years to develop the Two-Lens Approach, a holistic theoretical framework for analyzing the form, content, and context of
children’s narratives. This paper presents and applies this approach in an effort to start closing the gaps among the field of narrative
analysis and narrative theory.
期刊介绍：
Narrative Inquiry is devoted to providing a forum for theoretical, empirical, and methodological work on narrative. Articles appearing in Narrative Inquiry draw upon a variety of approaches and methodologies in the study of narrative as a way to give contour to experience, tradition, and values to next generations. Particular emphasis is placed on theoretical approaches to narrative and the analysis of narratives in human interaction, including those practiced by researchers in psychology, linguistics and related disciplines.
