Living story

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For oral tradition, when stories lead to a restorying of the past narrative, or the future antenarrative, they become living stories.[1] For example, David Boje says “living story has many authors and as a collective force has a life of its own. We live in living stories.”[2] In the work of Native scholar Twotrees, living stories have a mind, a time, and a place.[3] For Gregory Cajete and lived stories are the “life and process of the natural world becoming vehicles for the transmission of culture".[4]
