Abstract

The study of the more human and intimate dimension of subjects requires the use of a suitable approach that considers the complexities and peculiarities of such a task. In this article, we offer various analogies between the biographical-narrative research approach and the literary work of “The Little Prince.” The findings reveal a series of parallels and various particularities that are shared in common with the biographical-narrative approach. The story of the young little prince brings us closer to the realities faced by individuals when developing and constructing their identity, along with the essential pillars that underpin research in this area. Moreover, this parallel can teach us about the transformative power of human experiences.
