About Figuration.al

A narratological exploration of narrative figuration and how stories affect who we are.

This site is a thorough examination of figuration, Paul Ricoeur's mimetic theory of narrative, and an exploration of practical applications of this thesis to real-world narrative studies.

It is based on work from my PhD in Biblical Studies at Bristol University, Narrative, Sin and Forgiveness: An Assessment of N T Wright's Narrative Criticism Through the Hermeneutics of Paul Ricoeur, completed in 2017.

I write more about stories, writing, narratology and narrative figuration over on my personal website:
