Abstract

Abstract Treating narrative as a social practice has enabled examination of the identity work accomplished through interactive story construction within various communities, including teacher preparation programs. Largely unaddressed in this literature is the presence of desire – the sense of longing conveyed through expressed wants, wishes, and hopes – and how it works in and through narrative practice. Following James K. A. Smith (2009) , I posit that some stories may be liturgical in their conscripting of tellers and listeners into narratives that shape their identities and direct their desires. To explore this empirically, I examined desire in the joint construction of a professional identity narrative – teacher as lifelong learner – within an urban teacher residency. My analysis suggests that program leaders’ expressed desires of and for the novice teachers established the leaders’ authority and worked to conscript novices into the narrative. However, novices were actively negotiating the narrative and the desirability of the professional identity.

欲望、礼仪与叙事的共同建构:教师预备课程
摘要将叙事视为一种社会实践,使人们能够审视通过各种社区内的互动故事构建完成的身份工作,包括教师准备计划。在这部文学中,欲望的存在——通过表达的欲望、愿望和希望传达的渴望感——以及它是如何在叙事实践中发挥作用的。继詹姆斯·K·A·史密斯(James K.A.Smith,2009)之后,我认为一些故事可能是仪式性的,因为它们将讲述者和听众招募到塑造他们身份和引导他们欲望的叙事中。为了从经验上探索这一点,我考察了在城市教师驻地内共同构建职业身份叙事的愿望——教师作为终身学习者。我的分析表明,项目领导者表达的对新手教师的渴望建立了领导者的权威,并努力将新手招募到叙事中。然而,新手们正在积极协商职业身份的叙述和可取性。

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.
