Mental Health and the Memoir Reading Group: Narrative Medicine

We are delighted to invite you to the next reading group meeting for the new CModS Research Strand in Mental Health & the Memoir, at 17:00-18:00 on the 4th of November. In this session, we will read an extract from The Principles and Practice of Narrative Medicine (ed. Rita Charon et al) to explore medical applications of life-writing and the entanglements between narrative and clinical encounters.

We will be focusing on Chapter 1: "Accounts of Self: Exploring Relationality Through Literature" by Maura Spiegel and Danielle Spencer.
