WRI 545 - Introduction to Narrative Medicine: Narrative as a Form of Knowledge


A study of readings by narratively trained practitioners as well as writing assignments that move practitioners beyond clinical knowledge into narrative knowledge. Through engagement with literature and writing, students develop comfort with the less-defined areas of care-the open spaces of provider-patient relationships where ethics, empathy, and the unknown hold more power than heart-rate and x-ray.
