Summary/Abstract: The paper analyzes how narratives are used in argumentation. The theoretical part is divided into two subsections – argumentation and narrative - both presented in terms of theories and functions. The practical part is based on the transcription of a training course organized by an insurance company. The analysis aims to study how argumentative stories can be used in a formal setting, by identifying the type of argument, the part played in it by the story, and the function the story has in the structure of the argument.
