Writing Philosophical Autoethnography is the result of Alec Grantâs vision of bringing the disciplines of philosophy and autoethnography together. This is the first volume of narrative autoethnographic work in which invited contributing authors were charged with exploring their issues concerns and topics about human society culture and the material world through an explicitly philosophical lens. Each chapter while written autoethnographically showcases sustained engagement with philosophical arguments ideas concepts theories and corresponding ethical positions. Unlike much other autoethnographic work within which philosophical ideas often appear to be grafted on or supplementary the philosophical basis of the work in this volume is fundamental to its shifting content focus and context. The narratives in this book from scholars working in a range of disciplines in the humanities and human sciences function as narrative conceptual and analytical exemplars to act as a guide for autoethnographers in their own writing and suggest future directions for making autoethnography more philosophically rigorous. This book is suitable for students and scholars of autoethnography and qualitative methods in a range of disciplines including the humanities social and human sciences communication studies and education. .
