In The Ethics of Storytelling (2018), Hanna Meretoja proposes an approach to the study of narrative that foregrounds how interpretation takes place when people engage in storytelling, either as storyteller or as audience. This, she calls ‘narrative hermeneutics’: an inquiry into how narratives may instigate interpretation. Reading, listening to, watching a story is seen as an act of meaning-making, almost always leading to many different, sometimes contradictory interpretations
