This lecture will begin with an introduction to how the concept of narrative is defined and applied

Health, University of Southern Denmark:
Crafting synergies between image and text in explorations of health and illness
This lecture and workshop explores how the use of photographs in social studies of medicine can
enhance and stimulate the issues anthropologists and others investigate, conceptualise and
theorise. Drawing on a study-in-progress that examines men’s everyday healthcare practices in
Denmark, we consider how image, text, and the crafting of synergies between image and text
privilege different voices and produce different stories.

Literature and medicine: a presentation of thoughts and ideas behind an anthology of literature

be examples drawn from the works of Peter Seeberg, Djuna Barnes, Jens Blendstrup, Kirsten
Thorup and Anders Bodelsen. The presentation will introduce recent American research on
narrative medicine, which has had an influence on the creation of the anthology.
Group discussions on utilizing fiction as an attempt to clarify the human experience in the
interaction between patient, relatives, doctors and nurses.

Theme: Storytelling
Lecture and workshop by professor Nina Lykke, Gender Studies, Linköping University:
Shifting the boundaries between academic and creative writing
With a point of departure in reflections on the relationship between epistemologies,
methodologies and writing strategies, the lecture will challenge traditional understandings of
academic and creative writing as genres which are necessarily to be kept distinct and separate.
Taking examples from the field of intersectional gender studies as well as from critical patienthood
studies, the lecture will discuss how transgression of boundaries between genres can work as
productive research tools or as sociologist Laurel Richardson phrased it: Writing as a method of
enquiry.
The lecture will be followed by a writing workshop, which will give participants the opportunity
to reflect on different genres of writing, based on hands-on examples produced in class.
