Curious and Unpublished Anecdotes about the life of Empress Josephine
The following anecdotes capture specific moments in the life of Empress Josephine (23 June 1763 – 29 May 1814). These snapshots are recorded through the perspective of an unknown author with a tone of admiration and adoration for Empress Josephine. This author depicts Josephine’s never ending kindness in spite of injustices done to her. He does not, however, deem this same praise worthy of her second husband, Napoleon Bonaparte (15 August 1769 – 5 May 1821). In this text, the untouchable Josephine is the only redeeming quality of Napoleon’s reign (1804 – 1815). She is presented in the most favorable of lights, with the author strongly communicating an emphasis on her generous and charitable nature, her undying devotion to Napoleon, and the tragic loss suffered by humanity as a result of her death. Although the author assures the public to trust in these “authentic” accounts of history, one cannot be certain that these doting anecdotes were truly written from an unbiased standpoint
Josephine von Knorr, eine heute fast unbekannte österreichische Dichterin
The author tries to outline a portrait of the poetess Josephine von Knorr – one of the closest friends of the renowned Austrian writer Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach. The two writers creatively influenced each other in their extensive exchange of letters. The poetry of Josephine von Knorr eventually fell into oblivion. Her poems are not only an intimate expression of her inner feelings, but also an interesting reflection of the 19th century period.The author tries to outline a portrait of the poetess Josephine von Knorr – one of the closest friends of the renowned Austrian writer Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach.

Using crystallization to understand loneliness in later life: integrating social science and creative narratives in sensitive qualitative research
This article draws on crystallization, a qualitative framework developed by Laurel Richardson and Laura Ellingson, to show the potential of using sociological narratives and creative writing to better analyze and represent the lived experiences of loneliness among older people living in Australian care homes. Crystallization uses a multi-genre approach to study and present social phenomena. At its core is a concern for the ethics of representation, which is critical when engaging with vulnerable populations. We use two case studies from research on loneliness to illustrate an application of crystallization through different narrative types. To supplement our sociological narratives, we invited author Josephine Wilson to write creative narratives based on the case studies. Josephine was awarded the prestigious Miles Franklin Literary Award in 2017 for Extinctions, a novel exploring themes such as later life and loneliness. By contrasting the two approaches—sociological and creative narratives—we discuss the implications of crystallization for qualitative research.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
