In Australia, family storytelling and religion, the traditional sources of shared stories, are in decline. Stories are increasingly sourced from books, television, film and the internet. But the research suggests that whilst the sources of stories have changed over time, from family and bible stories to books, radio, television and film, the role of those stories has been constant. It has been argued that there is an important connection between an individual?s perception of their own place in the world, their understanding of what constitutes a good life and how to live it, and their ability to empathise with the lives and problems of others (MacIntyre, 1981; Taylor, 1989; Aristotle, 1996; Kearney, 2002). The research indicates that this core bundle of values, attitudes and beliefs is commonly derived from the stories to which individuals are exposed from an early age. Access to stories with which the individual can personally identify and which are familiar to and shared with those around them is crucial in establishing a satisfactory self-narrative (Polkinghorne, 1988), and to the individual's ability to communicate it successfully through the process of triple mimesis (Ricoeur, 1991/1980). Of crucial importance is access to sharable stories which resemble significant aspects of the recipient's own life and circumstances. Respondents who had endured personal difficulties were more likely to accept their circumstances and live successful lives when they had been able to identify with a story describing a similar problem and its credible resolution. However, individuals who had been unable to identify with a public story and establish a satisfactory self-narrative were more likely to be socially dysfunctional. The research also indicates a correlation between exposure to word-based stories at an early age, and the later development of imagination and ambition. People who only experienced visual stories in their early years appeared less articulate, less able to imagine things beyond their own experience, and were less ambitious in their career aspirations. Australia is an increasingly diverse nation, with a wide and growing variety of cultures, beliefs and circumstances represented in the population. It is argued that to maintain the social health of such a diverse community Australia requires an equally wide variety of public stories to ensure that all sections of the community can find a suitable reflection of their lives and circumstances. / thesis (PhDBusinessandManagement)--University of South Australia, 2005.

Objetivando-se identificar seu modo de narrar, tomou-se por base o modelo da tripla mímesis de Paul Ricoeur (2010), que entende a narrativa como mediadora entre um momento de prefiguração, que antecede a escrita do texto e determina a sua forma, e um momento de refiguração, com a recepção do texto pelo leitor. Combinada ao tripé “lugar social - prática - escrita” de Michel de Certeau (2017) e às considerações de S. Elizabeth Bird e Robert W. Dardenne (2016) acerca dos conceitos de estória e registro, a teoria ricoeuriana forneceu aparato teórico-metodológico para o mapeamento das mudanças narrativas do gênero jornalístico ao longo do tempo e posterior análise da produção jornalística de Dorrit Harazim, veiculada em Veja, Jornal do Brasil, O Globo e piauí, no período de 1970 a 2016. Em termos documentais, o trabalho ainda apresenta uma edição com 50 textos da jornalista, em alusão às suas cinco décadas de atuação profissional, revisadas segundo o Novo Acordo Ortográfico da Língua Portuguesa e organizadas com notas de pesquisa para suas respectivas contextualizações. / This dissertation focuses on the analysis of the practice of narrative journalism, more specifically from the work of one of its representatives, the Brazilian journalist Dorrit Harazim, who wrote for some of the main media outlets in Brazil and completed 50 years of career in 2016. In order to identify her mode of narration, was taken as basis the Paul Ricoeur’s triple mimesis model (2010), which understands a narrative as mediator between a moment of prefiguration, which precedes a writing of the text and determines its form, and a moment of refiguration, with a reception of the text by the reader. Combined with the “social – practice – writing” tripod of Michel de Certeau (2017) and the considerations of S. Elizabeth Bird and Robert W. Dardenne (2016) on the concepts of story and chronicle, the Ricoeurian theory provided a theoretical and methodological apparatus for the mapping of the narrative changes of the journalistic genre over time and later analysis of the Dorrit Harazim’s journalistic production, published in Veja, Jornal do Brasil, O Globo and piauí, from 1970 to 2016. In documentary terms, an edition with 50 texts of the journalist, alluding to her five decades of professional activity, revised according to the New Orthographic Agreement of the Portuguese Language and organized with research notes for their respective contextualizations.
