有別於敘事理論偏重故事內容與結構形式之文本分析，本研究旨在探討生命故事如何隨著敘事情境當下敘述者與聆聽者之互動，在日常敘事中生成意義，並發揮文化傳遞與社會實踐的中介作用。在敘事理論的框架下，本研究將關注焦點由故事「說了什麼、怎麼說」推展至生命故事如何作為「動態傳播媒介」，展現其媒介功能及敘事實踐與意義生成的多重面向。
本研究採取敘事詮釋學作為方法論基礎，以敘事探究為研究取徑，並運用敘事訪談法蒐集資料，強調生命故事並非既成文本，而是透過互動持續地生成、修正與再詮釋的敘事實踐。研究發現顯示，敘事的媒介線索啟動了「再記憶-再述說」的過程，故事內容在互動中經由補述、回應與重新組織而持續推進，從而展現其動態性、互動性與脈絡性。透過生命故事的述說，同時承載了地方社群經驗、處世態度與情感評價，使常民智慧逐漸轉化為群體共享的社會記憶。
由此，本研究進一步將生命故事界定為「動態的敘事實踐本體」，其意義在特定的時間、空間、互動關係與社會文化脈絡，透過敘述者與聆聽者之間持續展開的敘事互動逐步生成。循此觀點，生命故事不僅是個人經驗的再現，也進一步拓展了傳播媒介的概念，媒介不再侷限於技術載體，而體現在述說、聆聽、回應與詮釋的實踐過程，並由此成為常民智慧與社會記憶得以傳遞與延展其意義的重要形式。

Life stories are not finished texts; rather, they are interactively produced dimensions of everyday life. Taking life stories as dynamic communicative narrative practices as its central concern, this study argues that, as narrative practice unfolds, the dynamic, interactive, and contextual qualities of life stories gradually come into view. In this process, life stories do not remain fixed representations of past experience; instead, they are continuously shaped, revised, and reinterpreted through situated interaction. They should therefore be understood as a form of narrative practice that departs from conventional views of life stories as stable textual products, revealing instead their role as dynamic communicative processes through which meaning is generated and shared.
Taking narrative hermeneutics as its main methodological stance and narrative inquiry as its primary research method, this study investigates the processes and lived experiences of older adults’ narrative practices through participant observation and narrative interviews. By examining these narrative materials, the study identifies shared patterns and common features in older adults’ life stories, and further interprets the process of “re-memory and re-telling” as it unfolds in everyday interaction. In this way, the study seeks to understand how life stories are continually shaped through narrative practice, and how their meanings are produced, negotiated, and sustained over time.
Through the telling of life stories, local communal experiences, practical attitudes toward life, and affective evaluations are simultaneously carried forward, allowing ordinary wisdom to be gradually transformed into socially shared collective memory. Accordingly, this study further conceptualizes life stories as a dynamic ontology of narrative practice, whose meaning emerges progressively through ongoing narrative interaction between narrators and listeners within specific temporal, spatial, relational, and sociocultural contexts.
