Handbook of Autoethnography

The Handbook of Autoethnography, 2nd Edition, provides scholarly analysis of qualitative inquiry, interpretive methods, and personal narrative research. The handbook explores how researchers examine lived experience within cultural contexts while navigating diverse theoretical orientations.

The volume discusses methodological frameworks such as performative inquiry, posthumanist autoethnography, and critical traditions. It also addresses the practical demands of narrative work, evaluating ethical responsibilities toward the self and others alongside the personal and academic stakes of autoethnographic writing.

Comprising 564 pages and 30 black-and-white illustrations, this 2022 edition emphasizes collective professional practice and outlines approaches for building a caring community of autoethnographers.
