Abstract

The chapter results from a research paper that I presented at the British Sociological Society Auto/Biography Conference in 2011.

It explores how biography becomes an educative and hermeneutic tool when used in conjunction with visual, visual-semiotic, and the Bourdieusian notions of capital, habitus and field, and provides further insight into individual lives.
