SUMMARY
This is a study of how self-transformation may occur through the practice of reframing one's personal experience in terms of a canonical language: that is, a system of symbols that purports to explain something about human beings and the universe they live in. The Christian conversion narrative is used as the primary example here, but the approach used in this book also illuminates other practices - such as psychotherapy - in which people deal with emotional conflict through language.Stromberg, Peter G. is the author of 'Language and Self-transformation A Study of the Christian Conversion Narrative', published 2008 under ISBN 9780521031363 and ISBN 0521031362.
