It examines a range of different nonfiction forms – including the personal essay and memoir – and ethical questions that arise in relation to them, such as truth claims, the confessional mode, counter-narratives. Drawing on the ideas of Bakhtin, Nietzsche and Foucault; examples from creative non-fiction writers such as Strayed and Knausgaard; and the founding principles of the originators of the genre, Seneca, Augustine and Montaigne, Jensen argues that a limited conception of nonfiction leads to a limited view of its ethics. Writing about the truth in an authentic way is more important than ever before – and essential to this is the creation of the ethical subject. George H. Jensen is Professor Emeritus with the Department of Rhetoric and Writing at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, USA. His recent books include Some of the Words Are Theirs: A Memoir of an Alcoholic Family (2000), Storytelling in Alcoholics Anonymous: A Rhetorical Analysis (2000), and Identities Across Texts (2002). 0aCreative nonfiction. 0aCreative writing. 0aLanguage and languagesxStyle. 0aRhetoric. 0aLiteraturexPhilosophy. 0aPoststructuralism.14aNon-Fiction Literature.24aCreative Writing.24aRhetorics.24aLiterary Theory.24aPoststructuralism.2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303139185908iPrinted edition:z978303139187308iPrinted edition:z978303139188040uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-39186-6
