  • More about Trans Narratives: trans, transmedia, transnational


Trans is a prefix that can express or describe movement and change, and is also an adjective that signifies an identity or expression. Trans Narratives: trans, transmedia, transnational offers a critical exploration of life writing by trans people, interrogating the idea of trans in multiple registers and exploring the critical terms transmedia and transnational.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


Trans has recently gained significant theoretical and critical significance within and beyond academic circles. As a prefix, trans can be affixed to other words to convey or depict movement and transformation, as seen in terms like transnational or transmedia. Moreover, trans can function as an adjective when it forms part of a word that signifies an identity or expression. By employing the adjective trans, it has been possible to challenge and destabilize established notions of gender, as it opens up new understandings of what gender can mean for individuals who identify as trans.

A significant aspect of the study of life writing revolves around the exploration of identity and the potential for lives that narratives of identity enable. In keeping with this perspective, Trans Narratives: trans, transmedia, transnational presents a platform for critical inquiry into life writing by trans individuals. It aims to interrogate the concept of trans across various registers, placing the prefix at the forefront of the current field of life-writing studies. Through the examination of life writing and its theoretical frameworks, this book seeks to understand the meaning of trans when discussing identities and bodies, as well as to gain a deeper comprehension of the critical terms transmedia and transnational in relation to the field of life writing.

The chapters included in this book were initially published as a special issue of a/b: Auto/Biography Studies.
