M. Christopher Brown, II Rybka, Kathryn M. 2015-09-25T19:52:55Z 2015-09-25T19:52:55Z 10000-01-01 2002 2002 It examines the evolution of the qualitative research paradigm in order to provide a theoretical framework for locating the new narrative forms in social science writing. Additionally, several key devices which influence current qualitative inquiry are also considered: ethnographic text, the hermeneutic perspective, and the use of analogy and metaphor. A special emphasis is placed on the college novel genre, and its efficacy as a narrative source for communicating lived experience in higher education settings. The historical timeline of the qualitative research paradigm, a survey of the above textual concepts and methods, as well as five original narrative works provide a foundation for fiction to be explored as a potential source of scholarship in higher education research.
