Meaning of autoethnographic | Babel Free

Definitions

Using ethnographic techniques to describe one's own life, or events in which one is a participant.

Examples

“If ethnographic texts are a means by which Europeans represent to themselves their (usually subjugated) others, autoethnographic texts are those the others construct in response to or in dialogue with those metropolitan representations.”

“At the same time it often resorts to free indirect speech rather than dialogue, frequently using an autoethnographic point of view, suggesting a more personalized mode of shared ethnographic documentation.”
