In this article, I provide a phenomenological exploration of the role played by narrativity in shaping affective experience. I start by surveying and identifying different ways in which linguistic and narrative expression contribute to structure and regulate emotions, and I then expand on these insights by taking into consideration the phenomenology of borderline personality disorder. Disruptions of narrative abilities have been shown to be central to the illness, and I argue that these disruptions are at the origin of a number of alterations of affective experience. In particular, I suggest that due to the narrative "fragmentation" characteristic of the disorder, the emotions experienced by borderline patients can be less differentiated and have a predominantly bodily and unregulated character.
在本文中，我对叙事性在塑造情感体验方面所起的作用进行了现象学探讨。我首先调查并确定了语言和叙事表达在结构和调节情感方面的不同方式，然后通过考虑边缘型人格障碍的现象学来扩展这些见解。已经表明，叙事能力的中断是该疾病的核心，我认为这些中断是情感体验的许多改变的根源。具体而言，我认为由于该疾病的叙事“碎片化”特征，边缘型人格障碍患者所经历的情绪可能不那么分化，并且具有主要的身体和不受调节的特征。
