In this paper, I explore Lichtenberg’s conceptualization of “narrative as a central organizer of experience.” The idea that narrative integrates immediate happenings as well as past happenings is a natural extension of Lichtenberg’s other observations drawn from the new research on infancy – namely that the infant is primarily a “doer-doing” in a world constituted by the sharing of minds. Narrative replaces the older concept of representation in that it better describes the dynamics of meaningful action.
