Embracing process a narrative perspective 2 august 2014
1. Embracing Process in
Entrepreneurship Research
(A Narrative Perspective)

5. Or Not
What if the “non-routines” are routine?
What if difference is “no-difference?”
What assumptions are we making about:
entrepreneurs, environments, firms and
processes?
6. Yet why not say what happened?
Epilogue – Robert Lowell

7. What is Narrative?
Narrative displays the goals and intentions of human
actors; it makes individuals, cultures, societies, and
historical epochs comprehensive as whole; it humanizes
time; it allows us to contemplate the effects of our
actions, and to alter the directions of our lives. Narrative
is everywhere; it is present in myth, fable, short story,
epic, history, tragedy, comedy, painting, dance, stained
glass windows, cinema, social histories, fairy tales, novels,
science schema, comic strips, conversation and journal
articles.
- (Richardson, 1990: 117)
8. What is Narrative?
“I want you to feel what I felt. I want you to
know why story truth is truer sometimes than
happening-truth. . . . What stories can do, I
guess, is make things present. . . [T]his is true:
stories can save us.”
—Tim O’Brien, The Things They Carried
9. Methods in the Humanities
Men ask the way to Cold Mountain
Cold Mountain: there’s no through trail.
In summer, ice doesn’t melt
The rising sun blurs in swirling fog.
How did I make it?
My heart’s not the same as yours.
If your heart was like mine
You’d get it and be right here.
-- Han-Shan (Gary Snyder translator)
