本文调查文学的个人叙事的各种情况下，在主要是西方，后工业社会的做法。它首先概述了阐述叙事、自我和叙事语境之间关系的理论。然后，我考虑如何在制度背景下形成自我的叙事，包括那些叙事被用来评估自我或作为一种技术来改变自我。接下来的部分将考察叙事分析如何被用来考察人们在更大的社会话语（如新自由主义）中的定位。最后一节通过研究人们如何在互联网提供的各种数字媒体和在线环境中叙述自己，回到叙事形式和语境之间的关系。
This article surveys literature on personal narratives as situated practices in a variety of contexts in primarily Western, postindustrial societies. It begins with an overview of theories that articulate the relationships among narrative, self, and narrating context. I then consider how narratives of the self are shaped in institutional contexts, including those in which narratives are used to evaluate selves or used as a technology for changing selves. The section that follows examines how narrative analysis can be used to examine people's positioning in relation to larger social discourses such as neoliberalism. The final section returns to the relationship between narrative forms and contexts by examining how people narrate themselves across the variety of digital media and online contexts provided by the Internet.
