本文通过描述美国田纳西州诺克斯维尔的吉姆·大卫·阿德基森的大规模谋杀的故事性质，为叙事犯罪学提供了一个案例。根据对大卫的采访和他的著作，我认为他的叙述身份是他暴力的核心。他幻想自己的方式，他的个人和政治地位，鄙视别人，激发了他感到的伤害的冲动。在大卫的故事中，他同时断言（1）伤害的许可证，从而战胜一个非人格化的敌人，（2）伤害的必然性。叙事方法可以解释犯罪的细节，包括其特定的诱惑。
This paper makes a case for narrative criminology by describing the storied nature of mass murder by Jim David Adkisson in Knoxville, Tennessee, USA. Drawing on interviews with and writings by David, I suggest that his narrated identity was central to his violence. The ways in which he conjured himself, his personal and political situation, and despised others, animated his felt compulsion to do harm. In David’s story he simultaneously asserted (1) the license to harm and thus triumph over a depersonalized enemy and (2) harm’s inevitability. A narrative approach can explain the particulars of crime including its particular seductions.
