Abstract

This article presents an exploration of the storytelling as a feminist practice generating a counternarrative to law, with particular focus on narrative forms that center the collation of women’s stories, examining the practice from the 1400s to contemporary microbiographies on TikTok. I focus on the literary mode of biographical collection. In doing so, I assert that it is the weaving and compounding of multitudes of stories that give rise to the challenging of law’s normative, masculinized narratives. Seemingly inconsequential, isolated biographical narratives are given larger social meaning when read together.
