摘要:The1idea to conduct the interview with Pro-fessor Fritz Schütze had shown up during my conversation with Professor Krzysztof Konecki who asked me if I could do it, and I am grateful to him for this idea. Professor Schütze agreed to give the interview, and it was conducted in May 2013 when I had the great pleasure of being the guest of Pro-fessor Fritz Schütze and his wife Evi Schütze in their house in Wattenbach, Northern Hesse. Since we are both biographical researchers, we decided that the interview would have biographical background, and, as a result, it has a structure resembling an au-tobiographical-narrative interview. During the first session in July 2013, lasting approximately 1.5 hours, Professor Schütze recounted, in the frame of his bi-ographical experiences, how he became a sociologist and how he developed the idea of autobiographical narrative interviewing.
