The chapter develops the context for a book titled "Embodied narratives. Connecting stories, bodies, cultures and ecologies". It discusses this title and connects it with the tradition of studies in adult education, more specifically studies in life history and auto/biography, as methods that cast a light on the complexity of human life and learning. The systemic view is explored as an epistemology that can compose different sights on learning. Each chapter of the book is presented as a contribution to this wider comprehensive view, both on a theoretical and an empirical level.

Abstract
The chapter develops the context for a book titled "Embodied narratives. Connecting stories, bodies, cultures and ecologies". It discusses this title and connects it with the tradition of studies in adult education, more specifically studies in life history and auto/biography, as methods that cast a light on the complexity of human life and learning. The systemic view is explored as an epistemology that can compose different sights on learning. Each chapter of the book is presented as a contribution to this wider comprehensive view, both on a theoretical and an empirical level.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
