Abstract

This chapter documents a demonstration of three analytical processes illustrating the methodological processes used by the Teaching Men project. The Deleuzio Guattarian methodological approach is applied to three interview narratives; firstly Stuart that investigates the use of tropes as multiples within the interview setting. Secondly Mr. Tom and an investigation of how reflective practice can invoke fear and defensiveness. Finally Mr. Sydney and a consideration of a teacher might utilise a singular trope to overcome issues of difference in race and culture.

People are always the teller of tales.

They live surrounded by their stories and the stories of others; they see everything that happens to them through those stories and they try to live their lives as if they were recounting them.

Jean-Paul Sartre (1964, p. 92)
