This symposium explores narrative practices, health, and illness in relation to the different ways in which narrative medicine might be opened up in new directions. We are particularly interested in the connection between the narrative dimensions of the clinical space and the narrative dimensions of healthcare writ large—how are these narratives circumscribed etc.—and how to figure them and move between them. This has been less explored in narrative medicine and critical health humanities writing, which tend to concentrate on one or the other. We also welcome discussion on various other ways in which narrative medicine should or could be opened up, expanded, or further developed in the present moment.
