Abstract:In this volume, distinguished scholars of narrative provide their early attempts - triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic - to understand 'crises' from a narrative perspective. They discuss the narrative notions of crises as an ongoing situation, thereby uncovering ideals of stability and certainty as epistemologically questionable psychological concepts. The authors all start with insight into early considerations, from mid-2020, at a time still without vaccines and variants. They revisit their thoughts over the course of the ongoing pandemic and relate their research perspective to autoethnographic and biographical approaches to 'crisis narratives.'
"Crises radically alter lives. The Covid-19 pandemic and its consequences on our daily lives have questioned traditional modes of practice (Castigloni & Gaj, 2020). This is true for many clinicians and practitioners but also for the academic context and the discipline of Psychology. While many of us are still recovering from the collective longings for a 'back to how things were before the pandemic,' we have also realized that circumstances keep changing in unpredictable ways"--
